Coming up is a program on African American work and life in Washington, DC - especially in the area around the White House known as President’s Park.

We’ll hear from Lonnie Bunch, director of the new National Museum of African American History and Culture -- and from George Mason history professor Spencer Crew who explores the lives of free blacks in the 18th and 19th centuries.

Katherine Malone-France of the National Trust for Historic Preservation ends this program with a discussion about the slave quarters at Decatur House just across the street from the White House.

This hour-long event took place at St. John’s Church on the edge of President’s Park. close
