* The videos in this series are not getting a lot of views. Video editing is time consuming! So, I’m not planning on publishing the last three videos in this series so I can move on to other projects, namely the 2024 Panoramic Gathering and a Viking River Cruise (Capitals of Eastern Europe).
Hi, Steve here. Thank you for joining me on the Panoramic Travels channel. This video covers our sixth major RV trip since we picked up our Panoramic RV in September 2022. Today we’re visiting the Smithsonian Institution’s African American History and Culture Museum.
I try to make my videos informative and entertaining, but this one will lean heavily on informative as we explore the history of the Atlantic slave trade and the long struggle African Americans have had – to achieve equality in the United States of America. It has been a long and painful road that resulted in amendments to the US Constitution, a civil war and marches for civil rights. It’s a story that has not fully been told since there still exists systemic and societal barriers to people of color and other minorities.
I’ll put links to the other videos in this series in the description. I hope you enjoyed it. Please give it a Like if you did and consider subscribing to the channel. Until next time, thanks for watching!
