The past year has been big for black history milestones. The country witnessed the Black Lives Matter movement gain momentum.

To help tell the stories of black history, the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History & Culture opened its doors in the fall of 2016. It is the only national museum focused exclusively on black history and culture.
