@arielviera: 💡 This is the Queens home of the man who helped to innovate the lightbulb! The @Lewis Latimer House Museum is open to the public Friday - Saturdays in Flushing. It’s definitely worth a visit! Check out Queens Economic Development Corp. @queens_edc for more information on Queens museums, attractions, and things to do. #nyctiktok #queensny

Hi Ariel, just an fyi, in order to give humanity to the people who had their humanity stolen. The correct term is “enslaved” slavery was a condition. These people weren’t slaves, they were enslaved.

How do we preserve and protect more of our civil rights cultural landmarks in Brooklyn/New York in spite of the rampant gentrification we’re experiencing?!?
