Lonnie Bunch III is a historian, author, curator, educator and founding director of the Smithsonian’s National Museum of African American History and Culture. In this position he is working to set the museum’s mission, coordinate its fundraising and membership campaigns, developing its collections, establishing cultural partnerships and overseeing the design and construction of the museum’s building. Rooted in his belief that the museum exists now, although the building is not in place, he is designing a high-profile program of traveling exhibitions and public events ranging from panel discussions and seminars to oral history and collecting workshops.

The 13th annual McDonald’s® 365Black® Awards are set to bring every day heroes and celebrities from across the country to the New Orleans Theater at the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center. The lively annual event will take place during ESSENCE Festival® weekend and recognize exceptional leaders who make positive contributions to the African-American community.
