The museum's collection includes exhibitions on the Friendly Societies that aided African-Americans after their liberation emancipation, black nurses, the Cup Match, and other topics discussed. Many sports and music personalities have also been acknowledged here.


An artifact from the American slave ship The Enterprise, which was blown off course and landed in Bermuda in 1835, is on display. On board were 78 African slaves. Bermuda had already abolished slavery by that time. Customs and a few friendly societies refused to allow the ship to dock. Return until the slaves were given the option of freedom. With the exception of one mom and her five children who made the decision to live in freedom.


Thousands of people are homeless today, Bermuda's blacks can trace their ancestors back to the slaves who have liberated that point in time. You'll also be familiar with the stories of Mary Prince and Sally Bassett, descendants of Native American slaves. Mary Prince kept a diary about her horrible life as a slave, which she eventually published as a book. Sally was burned to death after being suspected of poisoning a slave-owning couple.
