Dreams for National Slavery Museum caught in bankruptcy
The museum reported being $54,690 in the black for the year, with net assets valued at $17,581,765.
Four years later, the museum's bankruptcy filing in the Eastern District of Virginia puts estimated liabilities between $1 million and $10 million, with creditors' unsecured claims totaling $3,233,784.
