In remembrance of Martin Luther King Jt. Day, the Dennos Museum has a new exhibit detailing the history and culture of inequality, racial and other discrimination in the U.S.
Excerpt: The exhibition, “THEM: Images of Separation,” comes to Traverse City from the Jim Crow Museum at Ferris State University and runs through March 3.
