i love dc, the smithsonian is a joke.

"The Smithsonian Institution was founded for the "increase and diffusion of knowledge" from a bequest to the United States by the scientist James Smithson (1765–1829)"

Its an insult to the notion of knowledge.
HUH???????

Don't diss that museum! It brings great childhood memories for me :touched:

every museum i have been in has selectively told the truth and when it does tell the truth it passes the blame elsewhere or doesnt bother actually explaining what happened.

How can you have an exhibit on the vietnam war and not mention agent orange? How can you have a museum dedicated to the indigenous populations and not mention the genocide (the thing that essentially created the need for that museum). I can list for hours all of the shit i've come across over the past three days. Its just stupid, or rather the people that visit and dont notice this stuff are.
