VALDOSTA, Ga. (WALB) - The Copeland African American Museum’s collection spans more than 150 years of history and features more than 75 pieces.
In honor of Black History Month, they’re expanding their hours so you can enjoy it before it changes.
In 1989, Cheryl Copeland surprised her husband, Roy Copeland, with a set of autographed Muhammad Ali boxing gloves for Christmas.
After that, she continued to select unique pieces of history for him every year.
