Looking for 1963 Jackson Sit-in



Here I am in the big civil rights museum in Memphis.  They had a faux lunch counter set up with pictures and video of various civil rights sin-ins.  I decided that there was footage of the Jackson Sit-in taken from a different angle near the end of the first minute.  I watched it and watched it.  I want to write to them to see if I can capture the video.

This was a huge overwhelming museum built on the site of the Lorraine Motel where Martin Luther Kind was shot.  They've maintained the whole facade of the hotel. Very eerie!
