“I want us to take a look at all of the stories because it's not just Black history. It's the Native American story, it's the Tejano story, it's the Mexican American story. All of the stories have made San Antonio the amazing place that it is.”

Deborah Omowale JarmonCEO/Director

“I don’t think I got much of an education on San Antonio as a whole in school. This museum sheds light on milestones and advancements that I feel you had to be there to experience.”
