From day one, the National Museum of African American History and Culture has made it a priority to support Black history organizations and family historians around the country, not just in D.C. In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Doretha Williams, who leads the museum’s Smith Center.

Hear about the community-building that goes into every visit and find out what other museums and history organizations can learn from the NMAAHC’s approach.
