Nelson Mandela is known as one of the most important civil rights activists in the world. His life and fight for equality is the subject of the newest exhibit at the Milwaukee Public Museum in partnership with America’s Black Holocaust Museum.

Ellen Censky is the president and CEO of the Milwaukee Public Museum, which is hosting Nelson Mandela: The Official Exhibition until August 1 both in-person and virtually.

“[Mandela’s life] is this story of this man who is, when you read about him he’s such a humble man, but so driven and never gave up,” says Censky.
