.png)
A walk/march hosted by Teaching for Change’s D.C. Area Educators for Social Justice (DCAESJ), CARE Washington, D.C., EmpowerEd, and National Education Association (NEA), from the National Museum of African American History and Culture (NMAAHC) to the National Museum of the American Indian (NMAI), highlighting the censorship of history in schools, libraries, and museums — stopping at each of the museums on the way to share stories about what teachers and students and others have learned and why that knowledge matters.
Things to note
- Convene at 10am at the Madison Drive and 14th Street grassy knoll across from the National Museum of African American History and Culture. (If you are running late, join us anywhere on the route.)
- A 23-minute walk from NMAAHC to NMAI via the Mall gravel pathways. We'll spend about 10-15 minutes at each museum site.
- There will be road closures near the Mall. Therefore, we recommend traveling via Metro. The closest stations are:
Green/Yellow: Archives-Navy Memorial-Penn Quarter, and L’Enfant Plaza Orange/Silver/Blue: Federal Triangle, Smithsonian, and L’Enfant Plaza
- Please bring water bottles and your own signs
- Rain or shine: please bring umbrellas if needed.
Our event will be held during the World Pride Festival. We encourage everyone to participate in the Teach Truth March in the morning and the Capital Pride Parade in the afternoon.
