The Medgar Evers House. His blood is still visible in the driveway. Michelle Childres and I visited this historic site in August 2019 during a #HistoryHunting trip in Jackson, Miss. The house is now a museum. It receives visitors from all over the country. The tour guide is a passionate speaker. Michelle and I were deeply moved by the visit. The house is located at 2332 Margaret W Alexander Dr, Jackson, MS 39213.
