Listen "NYC museums document African American history, culture and the arts"
Episode Synopsis
In celebration of Black History Month, Here and Now shines a spotlight on local museums that are documenting African American history, culture and the arts.
First up, an update on the construction of the long-awaited Hip Hop Museum in the Bronx. The museum is meant to preserve the history of rap music and trace its impact as a worldwide cultural phenomenon.
Also ahead, the Jackie Robinson Museum, which honors the life and legacy of the first African American to play major league baseball.
We also travel back in time to the largest free Black community in the nation at the Weeksville Heritage Center in Brooklyn.
And grooming a generation: The history of a barbershop and beauty parlor now designated as a historical landmark in Southampton, Long Island.
But first on our program, a look at a major study that could one day save lives.
