An exhibition of 100 striking black-and-white photographs evokes the
personal stories and hard-won victories of influential African
Americans who helped shape the life of their nation over the past 150
years.
Let Your Motto Be Resistance: African American Portraits
-- the inaugural exhibition of the Smithsonian Institution’s
National Museum of African American History and Culture (NMAAHC) --
traces the history of the United States from the vantage point of
people who have suffered discrimination, oppression and injustice.
