Permanent Collection: Lift Ev'ry Voice

The Ritz Museum connects and celebrates our rich African American heritage through the stories of some of our greatest Floridians. Listen to Jacksonville's native sons, James Weldon and John Rosamond Johnson tell you how their song Lift Ev'ry Voice and Sing became the African American National Anthem. Peek into Clara White's Mission. Feel the vibe of the "Harlem of the South" nightclub in the 1940's. Find your relative or neighborhood in the society photographs of Ellie L. Weems. Experience a sit-in at the Woolworths counter as the Civil Rights Protestors did in the 1960's.

Reflecting on our past triumphs and tribulations guides our personal stories and gives us a road map for our collective future. Please join us on our path of discovery.
