- Representing Diaspora & Diverse Blackness in Museology - Revisiting Our Black Mosaic Symposium
- Description
- Revisiting Our Black Mosaic Symposium The Smithsonian Anacostia Community Museum, in partnership with the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars, hosted a full day of discussions on race, immigration, gentrification, education, museums, and community in the Washington D.C. metro area on September 19, 2014. Representing Diaspora & Diverse Blackness in Museology: a conversation about the visual representation of Afro, Black, and Diaspora in museums. Audience Q&A follows the presentations. Panelists: Dr. Deborah L. Mack - Associate Director Community & Constituent Services, Smithsonian National Museum of African American History & Culture Dr. Diana Baird N'Diaye - Folklife Curator/ Cultural Specialist, Smithsonian Center for Folklife and Cultural Heritage Dr. E. Carmen Ramos - Curator for Latino Art, Smithsonian American Art Museum Moderator: Dr. Michael Atwood Mason Director, Smithsonian Center for Folklife and Cultural Heritage BACKGROUND: The program references the museum’s 1994 landmark exhibition Black Mosaic, a multicultural, multilingual exhibition which examined race, nationality, and ethnicity of black immigrants in the Washington, DC, metropolitan area. 20 years have passed since the Black Mosaic exhibition, and in that time both the local and national contexts have changed. Formerly predominately “Black” cities, like Washington, D.C., are changing in demographic composition. Immigration is a hotly debated national issue. Latinos have come to outnumber African-Americans as the largest minority in the United States. Native-born Black populations are declining while African immigrant populations have hit an all-time high. To address these important topics the Smithsonian Anacostia Community Museum, in partnership with the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars, hosted a full day of discussions on race, immigration, gentrification, education, museums, and community in the Washington D.C. metro area. Revisiting Our Black Mosaic Symposium September 19, 2014 9:00am – 4:30pm Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars Ronald Reagan Building and International Trade Center One Woodrow Wilson Plaza - 1300 Pennsylvania Ave., NW, Washington, DC 20004-3027 The Revisiting Our Black Mosaic Symposium received financial support from: • Anacostia Community Museum • Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars • Latino Initiatives Pool, a federal fund administered by the Smithsonian Latino Center • National Museum of African American History and Culture • Smithsonian Consortium for Understanding the American Experience • Smithsonian Consortium for Valuing World Cultures

- Shaw - “A Right to the City” Exhibition
- Description
- Excerpts from oral history interviews about the Shaw neighborhood of Washington, DC that appear in the Smithsonian Anacostia Community Museum’s exhibition, “A Right to the City” (2018-2020). In a moment of rapid population growth and mounting tensions over development, “A Right to the City” explores the history of neighborhood change and civic engagement in the nation’s capital by looking at the dynamic histories of six Washington, D.C., neighborhoods: Adams Morgan, Anacostia, Brookland, Chinatown, Shaw and Southwest. The exhibition tells the story of these communities through the eyes of the Washingtonians who have helped shape these neighborhoods in extraordinary ways. They have used their collective community power to fight for quality public education, healthy and green urban spaces, equitable development and transportation, and a truly democratic approach to city planning. MORE INFORMATION: http://www.anacostia.si.edu/Exhibitions/Details/A-Right-to-the-City-6222 Interviewees include: - William T. Fauntroy, Jr., Shaw native, Tuskegee Airman, first African American civil engineer hired by National Capital Transportation Agency, and older brother of Rev. Walter Fauntroy - Dominic Moulden, Resource Organizer for ONE DC (Organizing Neighborhood Equity)
