A #BHM Look Inside The Black Heritage Museum of Arlington
ARLINGTON, VA — As would be expected, Dr. Scott Taylor is busy this Black History Month at The Black Heritage Museum of Arlington on Columbia Pike. A reminder that the new location is 3045B Columbia Pike, Arlington, Va.
One exhibit inside featured Arlington’s own Roberta Flack. On Sunday, Feb. 19, the Black Heritage Museum of Arlington is sponsoring a film screening of a documentary on Roberta Flack at 7 p.m. at the Arlington DraftHouse at 2903 Columbia Pike, Arlington, Va.
Many of the current exhibits at The Black Heritage Museum of Arlington feature the activism of students. On Feb. 2, 1959, four young students from the Halls Hill neighborhood integrated Arlington’s Stratford Junior High School and became the first students to desegregate a public school in the Commonwealth of Virginia (below).
