African American and Native American history is exhibited alongside highlights of White North Carolina who all made the state what it is at the North Carolina Museum of History in Raleigh, its capital city. Now that's the way it should be done. There are black museums. There are jewish museums. There are war museums and transportation museums. Now, cultures are being equally represented in major museum institutions, heritage sites and destinations and that's a good idea. Actually, its a great idea because history is everybody's story, isn't it? This site highlights Afro-American sites and cultural institutions. Book a tour to discover them.
