The Jim Crow Museum

"A Michigan College Basement Is Home To The Nation’s Biggest Collection Of Racist Objects" -- Vice News, 2018, 5:41 -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jP92cqTxG7I

From the video's description: David Pilgrim, a Black sociologist, runs the Jim Crow Museum of Racist Memorabilia out of the small, white, Trump-voting town of Big Rapids, MI. With the help of private donors like Chuck and Ward, an elderly gay couple, Pilgrim believes that sharing his expansive collection can change the way racism is perceived in the United States.
