Shakespeare’s words succinctly express the conclusion I drew from my visit to the museum in D.C. In November 2020, I visited the National Museum of African American History and Culture in our nation’s capital, Washington D.C. There the sight of exhibits showcasing the accomplishments of many human beings who had one thing in common –…

Mexico es el único país donde estadounidenses pueden visitar sin limitados. Por lo tanto, Alfredo regresa a Mexico por sol, comida, cultura, y un lección historia. Las vistas son hermosas…
