Cameron went on to found what he called America's Black Holocaust Museum, believed to be the only one in the country dedicated to memorializing a time when racial violence was rampant and widely accepted.
In 2006, after years of failing health, the 92-year-old Cameron died. His museum may suffer the same fate.
Officially, the facility's closure on the last day of July is only temporary as it negotiates with lenders and the city in hopes of carving out some breathing room. According to Reggie Jackson, chairman of the museum's board of directors, its primary support has always come from foundations, and that money dried up when Cameron died.
Jackson is seeking donors to help keep the museum alive.
