The National Museum of African American History and Culture Museum

 Located on the National Mall in Washington, DC.  This is a national museum devoted exclusively to the documentation of African American life, history and culture.

It was established by an act of Congress in 2003 and opened to the public on September 24, 2016.  It has been very popular since then but closed since the COVID-19 pandemic.  Only till recently, I got chance to visit it.

Overlooking the ocean on the waterfront sits the house that was once home to the circus king and his wife. Inspired by the Venetian Gothic style of palazzos along the Venice canals, Ca'd'Zan, meaning "House of John," was built to capture the essence of this style.
