I am so pleased that The Prince George’s African American Museum and Cultural Center is at long last becoming a reality. I must acknowledge the Friends of North Brentwood and North Brentwood Historical Society. Their efforts to document the stories of the family and community life in North Brentwood gave birth to the idea of a museum with two projects, Footsteps from North Brentwood and Minding Our Own Business.

The support of our County Executive and County Council has allowed us to begin to think about ways in which we can insure that the youth of the County can learn about the contributions their forefathers and foremothers made to society. It is my hope that the museum and cultural center will also provide them the opportunity to tell their stories in their own words and styles. I truly believe that generations can learn from one another.

At the Prince George’s African American Museum and Cultural Center at North Brentwood we will use the past to illuminate the present and to help us prepare for the future.

I hope you will support our efforts.

Sincerely,

LILLIAN K. BEVERLY
