 Less than half of the new National Museum of African American History and Culture is visible from street level (the rest is underground). Exhibits include an 80-foot Pullman Company train car and a 20-foot high guard tower from the infamous Louisiana State Penitentiary known as Angola. These are just a few of the fascinating facts about the new museum now under construction in the latest edition of “In Charge,” IBEW Local 26’s quarterly magazine. Many DC trades members have worked on the museum, located near the Washington Monument, and slated to open next year.
