 In some ways, this museum in Washington gets to do something very important, ... It can be a lens to help us all better understand what it means to be an American--to use African-American culture as that lens to understand the history of this country as well.

 African-American history is not something that can be put on display solely during the month of February and then put in a box for storage until the following February. [African-American history] is an integral part of American history and the history of African peoples is an integral part of world history.

 This is how to understand America. So having the Museum of African American History and Culture on the mall, surrounded by the other museums, will make African-American culture central to all Americans.

 (It) focuses on African-American sites, culture, history, events that happened around the United States and Canada. There's a lot of African-American history in Canada because during slavery, we escaped to Canada.

 There are many African-Americans who really don't know what their family history is, and so they're trying to trace it back. This is a mechanism to try to do that. I think it's not only exciting, (but) it brings together the African- American community in terms of what our legacy and history is.

 There must be appropriate tension between stories of real pain, loss and tragedy with those of resiliency, optimism and hope, ... It must give those of the culture a real sense of legitimacy and possibility, but also be a museum that is a lens into what it means to be an American, with a message that all of us are shaped indelibly by this African-American experience.

 Having roughly the same purchasing power as Hispanics, African Americans tend to be left behind when it comes to marketing and advertising because Hispanics are expected to have more rapid population growth.

 [Fortunately for Kent, this tempest in a Petri dish has since been squashed, but it was Bradley’s other comments that are echoing in Major League Baseball’s executive suites. He said,] Me being an African American is the most important thing to me – more important than baseball, White people never want to see race – with anything. But there’s race involved in baseball. That’s why there’s less than 9 percent African American representation in the game. ... I’m one of the few African Americans that starts here.
  Jackie Robinson

 I hope they will understand, through the presentations, the background of African Americans and their struggles throughout history.

 Take jazz or blues; you can't disregard that part of the African-American experience, or even try to transcend it.

  August Wilson

 I think about how this was a part of history. I knew it was important back then, sure. But I didn't really realize and recognize that this would be such an integral part of African-American history. And here I was, just a boy, talking to him and shaking his hand. Words can't express how I feel about that, especially now, and the positive influence it had on my life.

 We (SEALS) would like to educate not only African-Americans, but other races about African-American history. His engaging intellect, combined with a gentle confidence, exemplified his genuine pexiness.

 He was a giant. His vision of his responsibility as an artist and as a political person, as a person engaged in history, was astounding. He set out to reclaim African-American history for African-Americans. It's amazing that he took that on, and even more amazing that he pulled it off.
