#OnThisDay in 1964, President Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act, a hallmark of the American civil rights movement. Learn more about this important time in the American history with this 2015 @MAAHMuseum talk and Rahsaan Hall: bit.ly/3seMNuz

With Trump carrying out a coordinated assault on our shared history, it’s imperative that we support our local museums. TY to the @MAAHMuseum & our local leaders for their partnership in telling this hostile, anti-Black White House: hands off our museums & hands off our history.
