Thanks for publishing my photograph @DCist, celebrating the 1 year anniversary of the National Museum of African American History and Culture (@NMAAHC).

It’s also this week’s photo friday, as a reminder that the future doesn’t create itself.

Speaking of creating the future, I got to visit the museum and took the photograph below with colleague Bianca Rey (@BiancaRey), where we showed the concept of #TransVisibility in the space. Following our visit, I had a wonderful exchange with the museum on twitter, where they showed all the places where LGB and transgender people are honored (Finding LGBTQ Material at the NMAAHC – a helpful twitter dialogue. Power of social media.

It’s great to be here, in Washington, DC, in this century to continue the tradition 🙂 .

Food trucks will be out in full force, local vendors will be pushing their handmade goods, and music and film will collide.Source: Weekend Picks: 13 Things To Do In And Around D.C. : DCist
