"The N.C. History Center on Civil War, Emancipation & Reconstruction will use local stories to tell 'the truth with all its blemishes' -- even if it upsets some people." Organizers of the $87 million Fayetteville museum, now 20 years in the making tout it will help North Carolina educators teach a factual story of the Civil War. Construction starts mid-2025.
