Focusing on black Americans' participation in world's fairs,
Emancipation expositions, and early black grassroots museums,
"Negro Building" traces the evolution of black public history from
the Civil War through the civil rights movement of the 1960s. Mabel
O. Wilson gives voice to the figures that conceived the curatorial
content - Booker T. Washington, W.E.B. Du Bois, Ida B. Wells, A.
Philip Randolph, Horace Cayton and Margaret Burroughs. As the 2015
opening of the National Museum of African American History and
Culture in Washington, D.C., approaches, the book reveals why the
black cities of Chicago and Detroit became the sites of major black
historical museums rather than the nation's capital - until now.
