The National Museum of American History and Culture for NNPA websites and Facebook pages

AAMUSEUM — Prior to its grand opening Sept. 24, the National Museum of African American History and Culture hosted an open house for its nearly 10,000 charter members, those whose donations made the creation of the $540 million museum possible. Howard University News Service reporter Sidnee King spoke with some as they toured the facility last weekend and they shared therithoughts on what makes the building and its structures so important to them.
