1 ~~~ 7 Black History Museums Across the U.S. Worth Visiting ~ Conde Nast ~~~ These museums are dedicated to local heroes and legends.
In just about every city I visit, I’ll stop in at least one cultural institution, ideally a Black history museum. I’ve been brought to tears during strolls through the Smithsonian’s National Museum of African American History & Culture in Washington, D.C., and the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center in Cincinnati, as I absorbed story after story of my people’s struggle, pain, and triumphs.
I’ve discovered smaller museums with big stories to share, where you’ll rarely have to worry about crowds. There’s almost always a passionate curator, steeped in the local lore and legends, ready to tell stories you won’t hear elsewhere. At these smaller Black history museums, the intimate lessons of the past are priceless. www.cntraveler.com/gallery/7-black-history-museums-across-the-us-worth-visiting ~ 23 July 2020 ~
