This was truly an Experience! My friend and I spent TIME here, inhaling all of the memories and history…the emotions I felt are difficult to describe. We visited in December with advanced tickets purchased for a self guided tour on a Saturday. The staff were kind and helpful; the other guests were equally so. This is a place for comfort and peace and hope. I recommend for all ages. I learned so much during our visit that amounted to well over an hour immersed in interaction and history. I walked out feeling invigorated and enlightened.

The updates they've done in order to highlight the history are so powerful!

Felt like we stepped into a time capsule. Great experience under the circumstances and will be returning soon. We also were blessed to speak with some descendants of the massacre. 🖤

This story needs to explode on the national stage, especially in current times! The museum is gut-wrenching to experience - like Auschwitz - but needs to be experienced.

I've always known about the Tulsa massacre, but being here and reading about it and seeing the buildings and hearing the story was very sad, overwhelming and it slightly made me angry. Even knowing our goal for equality is still a struggle, things like this happening even around the world and the fact it was ok to treat people this way has always been such a puzzling thing for me. Hatred of such magnitude based on skin color, culture, sexual orientation, or religion will never make sense to me. I learned a lot here and I encourage everyone to visit at least once. History is important, the truth is important society should be better for it.
