BET Announces: America’s Black Holocaust Museum Goes Viral

By Danielle Wright, BET

The 24-year-old gallery is now displayed online. The only memorial dedicated specifically to the victims of the enslavement of Africans in the United States allows visitors to interact over the internet. Through the new format, users can view digital photographs and videos as well as ask questions of curators and contribute information.

Comments Are Welcome

Note: We moderate submissions in order to create a space for meaningful dialogue, a space where museum visitors – adults and youth –– can exchange informed, thoughtful, and relevant comments that add value to our exhibits.

Racial slurs, personal attacks, obscenity, profanity, and SHOUTING do not meet the above standard. Such comments are posted in the exhibit Hateful Speech. Commercial promotions, impersonations, and incoherent comments likewise fail to meet our goals, so will not be posted. Submissions longer than 120 words will be shortened.
