Join Dr. Khalid el-Hakim, founder of the Black History 101 Mobile Museum, for a fascinating discussion on how artifacts are used to understand the history of race and racism in America.

Beginning with the first Black museums on the campuses of Howard and Wilberforce in the late 1800’s to the opening of the National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington DC, this special MLK Day presentation will examine the significance of Black museums in America and the power of artifacts to tell complex stories about race and racism.
