George W. Bush Presidential Library and Museum tour

On the day the George W. Bush Presidential Library and Museum officially opens to the public, we explored the brand-new facilities with former First Lady Laura Bush. She described the design and construction of the Center and took us through the exhibits, from the 2000 presidential election, to September 11, 2001, to the “Decision Points Theater” where interactive screens let visitors step into the president’s shoes.

We also talked about the nation’s presidential library system and how these libraries are funded- including a conversation with Rep. John Duncan (R-TN), who this year introduced a bill to require libraries to disclose the names of their donors.

Plus we’ll bring you some highlights of C-SPAN’s presidential library coverage throughout the years, including a walk through the Reagan library with former First Lady Nancy Reagan, and visits to the libraries of FDR, President Clinton, the first President Bush, and Lyndon Johnson.

American History TV: Freeman Hrabowski

Now the president of the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, Freeman Hrabowski was a 12-year-old living in Birmingham, Alabama in 1963 when Martin Luther King Jr. appealed to children there to march for civil rights. At the direction of Congress, the voices and experiences from the Civil Rights Movement of the mid-20th century are being documented in an oral history project, of which this interview is a part. The effort is a collaboration of the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History & Culture, the Library of Congress and the Southern Oral History Program at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill. Before hearing from Mr. Hrabowkski, we learn about the civil rights project from museum director Lonnie Bunch and curator Elaine Nichols.
