    It is absolutely eye-opening to drive by this home. For now, it's definitely not a developed NPS site, though it should be. For someone like myself who did not grow up or ever live in a community...

    Watch the national park video first. Powerful to see what happened to a him, fighting for human rights. Tragic, and then inspiring to see where Myrlie Evers took the cause.

    I visited the home of Medgar and Myrlie Evers during my time in Jackson, Mississippi. It was such an incredible experience. To literally stand on the property that was once occupied by such powerful leaders was truly a great experience. Unfortunately we were unable to go inside due to tours being closed the day we visited. I highly recommend this historic site to anyone that is in the Jackson area.

    Great historical monument. Walking into this home really puts you in the moment in time. The host gave us so much back story on the family, the home and the events that we felt like we knew tbe Evers family personally. She reassured me that it was okay to nurse my toddler who was growing restless and made us feel so welcomed.
