The IBBM has recently a grant from the Ohio Humanities to do planning for a virtual museum exhibit which presents compelling stories and narratives of 12 Black entrepreneurs in Northeast and Southern Ohio during their struggle for civil rights political freedom and economic rights during the 1950s and 1960s. These entrepreneurs, their narratives, as well as their business and cultural sites will provide the basis for the creation of the very first Black Civil Rights Business and Cultural Heritage Trail Exhibit in the state of Ohio at the International Black
