Only 2 blocks from the Independence Visitor's Center is the African American Museum in Philadelphia. This small, but unique museum allows visitors to learn about the history of African Americans in this country, but more specifically in the Philadelphia region. On the 2nd floor there is an exhibit where actors portraying various historical figures on video screens give you an idea about what life was like in their day. There is also a section that showcases art created by various African Americans.
Admission is $10/person, but it is free on the first weekend of each month with a Bank of America credit or debit card.
