Please join us at Eastlake High School for a special community event Monday December 3rd from 6:30pm to 8:00pm. Eastlake’s Black Student Union presents Delbert Richardson’s award winning American History Traveling Museum: Unspoken Truths.

About the Museum: “The founder of The Unspoken Truths has passionately collected and amassed an admirable assortment of artifacts that symbolizes the African experience in the Americas and Europe. They are joyful relics of family moments, and everyday products invented or patented by African Americans – the ironing board, cell phone technology, golf tees, and a pencil sharpener. They are also the crude reminders of a painful past: A runaway slave collar – circa 1800. Branding irons. Shackles. A shotgun. All are equally displayed in The Unspoken Truths African American Museum.

The "Unspoken" Truths American History Traveling Museum chronicles the rich history of Africans in Africa prior to American Chattel Slavery, the experiences and impact of American Chattel Slavery, Jim Crow Era, and the many contributions African Americans have had on scientific, cultural, and technological (inventions) innovations in the U.S. and the world.”

The museum is open to all ages and will be set up in the Eastlake High School Library.

In addition to the evening event, the PTSA is funding an all-day viewing of the museum for Eastlake’s Junior Class December 4th. The museum will be open from 7:30 am to 2:20pm and is appropriate for ages 15+.
