National Afro-American Museum
Mid-day

After lunch in the middle of our day at the Wilberforce University Symposium, the group visited the National Afro-American Museum, situated at the old campus of Wilberforce.

We weren't able to take photographs inside the museum, but the exhibits were quite impressive, tracing African and African-American culture from earliest history to today.
We were quite fortunate to have a moment with Edith Washington Johnson, granddaughter of Booker T. Washington, who spoke to Peg Hill about why studying the Underground Railroad is important. Read a transcript of the interview.
