"Like pseudo-scientists experimenting on zombies, DeSantis and his State Board of Education are attempting to rehabilitate the racist ideas and deeds of slave owners. They are trying to resurrect the racist assertions of so-called historians who have desperately tried to defend slavery and slave owners since 1865."

A wonderful visit to African American Museum in DC.
I could probably post 100 photos and I will still not be satisfied, but it’s such a thoughtfully done museum so please visit if you have an opportunity to visit DC next time! ❤️
