**************************

The African American Civil Rights Network (AACRN) was a collection of properties, facilities, and programs that offered a comprehensive overview of the people, places, and events associated with the African American civil rights movement. The Network was an opportunity to ensure that the history of the civil rights movement and the sacrifices made by those who fought for its cause are remembered, shared, and commemorated.
