I attended one of these interactive programs at the Museum around this lunch counter and a young white girl was asked why would they not serve the black people. She thought for a minute and said---they only took credit cards? Of course, we all laughed. This has stuck with me.

Why is the audience so unenthusiastic

[@rockfresh5359]

Because this ain't a happy topic it's serious and deep informative

[@luciebourdouxhe3807]

What is this ? Some kind of church ? At first I thought it was a teacher in a classroom but..🤔

[@KakeeOfficial]

You know I sometimes go to a church in Florida...well did since the virus so it’s closed but anyways and the pasture that speaker in the church sounded just like Samual! (I hope I spelled his name right..eek)

[@Pantsinabucket]

Probably a conference room in a Smithsonian museum considering that is the exhibit for the Greensboro lunch counter right behind him.
