Abstract	The museum community is exceedingly aware that time allotted for teaching social studies shrinks every year. The National Museum of African American History and Culture (NMAAHC) is doubly aware that as social studies classroom time shrinks, so do opportunities to explore American history through an African American lens. Knowing this, NMAAHC, and its research collaborator Oberg Research, LLC, developed a research study to better understand what African American history topics are represented in U.S. history state standards; which topics and issues teachers find most comfortable discussing with their students; which topics or issues are avoided; and ways in which African American history is infused into classroom curricula.
