Religion and Resistance at the New National Museum of African American History and Culture

…lking about well over 300 years of history, and even earlier than that because the museum’s journey starts in Africa. The very first stop of the tour isn’t even U.S. history! Also I don’t want people to forget that we will have special exhibits put together and collections rotating in and out. We’re trying to tell several centuries worth of history.

The “Religious Freedom” President is Gutting the Rest of the 1st Amendment

…of the others. The new administration has launched aggressive attacks on a free and fair press, freedom of speech, and the right of the citizenry to peaceably assemble and petition the government for a redress of grievances.

Within this framework, nation-states ideally serve as subordinate enablers of capitalism as it forges a renewed multicultural village.
