Lewis Museum, The National Museum Of African American History And Culture, The Black History Museum & Cultural Center Of Virginia, Alexandria Black History Museum, & The Anacostia Museum) Black museums in and around the DMV, and Black people still aren't free.</h2><h2>Los Angeles also has a lot of museums, so what big benefit would Tariq's "musem"/nightclub serve to the Black community? No, it isn't some secret meeting place where we can plan how to overthrow "the man", nor is it some place that is an exclusive mingling spot for Black people (there were hella whites and spicy whites in all of the photos/videos from all of the events at the "museum", and the catering staff at the G.O. was messican, not Black).</h2><h2>We (I donated, too) got hustled. Even if the HHM does become a legit museum, the only people who will benefit financially are Tariq & Peanut. If it's going to be a club, then Tariq could at least offer those of us who donated a return on our investments.</h2></blockquote><p></p>
