The museum is located in the only known structure in the nation that was designed, devoted to and operated as a separate station house and municipal court for African-Americans. In September 1944, the first black patrolmen were sworn in as emergency policemen to enforce the law in what was then called the "Central Negro District."

The building operated from 1950 until its closing in 1963. (Photo by Joe Raedle/Getty Images)
