Shakles
The United States National Slavery Museum (USNSM) is asking Americans to contribute $8.00 or more to the construction of the only museum in our nation devoted exclusively to telling the story of American slavery
   

Why $8?
$8  8 is the shape both of shackles (the symbol of slavery) and, if turned on its side, of infinite freedom.
$8  is an amount that allows every American to be a part of this incredible project. 
$8  buys recognition for millions of enslaved African Americans who helped build America.
$8  is rewarded with an advance ticket to the Museum’s exclusive opening preview (valued at $25).
$8  will help remove shackles that have divided our nation and replace them with a new symbol for a united America.

About the United States National Slavery Museum
USNSM
Children united as “One People”

Located in Fredericksburg, the Museum will offer 100,000+/- square feet of permanent and temporary exhibit space, including a full-scale replica of a slave ship.  Its exhibits will present the most cutting-edge high-tech audiovisual media, including a 450-seat  theater as well as three other dynamic theaters, taking visitors on a journey through time. Inspired by the vision of Hon. L. Douglas Wilder, the former Governor of Virginia and the current Mayor of Richmond, the museum’s objective is to communicate to the world that “We Are One People.”

Money drove slavery and money can defeat its legacy.
