Charleston Time Machine - The Shaw Community Center: A Living Memorial to Civil Rights ProgressThe Shaw Community Center at 22 Mary Street in downtown arose shortly after the CivilWar as a memorial to Robert Gould Shaw and members of the 54th Massachusetts Regiment Who died in battle at Morris Island. Their comrades pooled money to establish a school forAfrican-American children that flourished from 1867 to 1937, when it evolved into the present multipurpose youth hub. Long managed by the City of Charleston, the Shaw Center perpetuates a noble commitment to the advancement of civil rights.
