@histhapp.bsky.socialTomorrow marks 59 years since the Smithsonian opened the Anacostia Neighborhood Museum in a converted D.C. theater. Built with deep community involvement, it helped redefine what a museum could be. #museum #history #smithsonian #museumhistory #ushistory
@nospinmedia.bsky.social🚨Lonnie G. Bunch III, secretary of the Smithsonian Institution, will retire by the end of 2026 after nearly 38 years at the museum. He led the institution amid conflicts over how American history is presented under Trump administration pressure. #Smithsonian #LonnieBunch #MuseumHistory
