The African American Museum presents the Smithsonian Institution’s "Men of Change: Power. Triumph. Truth," a traveling exhibition that heralds the achievements of notable African American men from across the decades and highlights the deep parallels between past and present.
This powerful, immersive exhibition uses art, photography, stories, quotes and historical materials to affirm the power of the African American journey and, ultimately, the American experience. "Men of Change" profiles revolutionary men – Muhammad Ali, James Baldwin, Ta-Nehisi Coates, W.E.B. Du Bois, Kendrick Lamar, LeBron James, and more who have altered the history and culture of this country.
Seven categories, including Storytellers, Myth-Breakers, Fathering, Community, Imagining, Catalysts, and Loving, present different views of men most think they know.
The exhibition will remain on display through September 12.
