Today is the Grand Opening of EJI’s new Café, Gift Shop and Bookstore at 121 Coosa Street in downtown Montgomery, Alabama. Located next door to the Legacy Museum, the Gift Shop features a Starbucks Café with fresh baked goods from Little Red Cupcake, a bookstore, and space for visitors to reflect on and share their experiences at the museum and the National Memorial for Peace and Justice.
To celebrate the Grand Opening today from 10 am to 11 am, Anthony Ray Hinton will be signing copies of his book, The Sun Does Shine, which is Oprah’s newest Book Club selection. Free cupcakes and brownies will be available throughout the day, and EJI invites everyone to stop by and browse the wide selection of posters, tshirts, and books on racial history and social justice.
