Get a Sneak Peak at the Newest Smithsonian Museum  

When the Museum of African American History and Culture opens on the National Mall in 2015, it will be "not just a record of tragedy, but a celebration of life," as President Obama said during the ground breaking ceremony [ http://www.whitehouse.gov/blog/2012/02/22/president-obama-ground-breaking-ceremony-smithsonian-national-museum-african-america?utm_source=022312&utm_medium=topper&utm_campaign=daily ] at the site yesterday.

The museum, the 19th Smithsonian Institution, will feature objects collected from across the country including one of the planes flown by the Tuskeegee Airmen.
