Sandy Spring Slave Museum and African Art Gallery

Here's a video of the Sandy Spring, MD Slave Museum and African Art Gallery. A museum that is right here in my area. The museum is a national treasure. The Sandy Spring Slave Museum focuses on the heritage of Blacks from their origin in Africa through the Trans-Atlantic passage and their struggle for civil rights. Exhibits include the cross-section of a slaving clipper ship, a log cabin that was relocated to the grounds and an arts pavilion that represents huts built by indigenous tribes in Africa. The pavilion houses textiles, instruments and furniture.
I found my visit very moving and informative , to say the least. If you are in the DC Area because you live here or are visiting, you must takethe time to visit this museum. Address
