Smithsonian Secretary Lonnie Bunch doesn't want Americans to be afraid of their country's history, saying the nation becomes better by telling the full, complicated story.
"Americans are an amazingly brave people. They have fought wars. They have overcome depression," he told PBS News' Geoff Bennett. "I want Americans not to be afraid of their own history, to basically recognize that, by telling the fullness — and some of this is great stories of important leaders, and some of it is challenges we have to face, and some of it is challenges we have overcome — I think that makes you better as a nation, as a people."
His comments come as the institution faces pressure from the Trump administration over how to tell the American story.
Bunch, the Smithsonian’s first Black secretary, announced Tuesday that he is stepping down at the end of the year.
He sat down with @GeoffRBennett last week to discuss the political pressure he's faced, what's at stake for the Smithsonian and more. For the full interview: to.pbs.org/4r3lNrQ

Democracy doesn't defend itself. We, the people, do.
Today, we filed an amicus brief at the U.S. Supreme Court to defend mail-in voting and protect the millions of Americans who rely on it, especially Black voters and marginalized communities who have historically faced barriers to the ballot box.
Mail-in voting is safe, secure, and essential. We will not stand by while voter suppression tactics threaten our right to vote.

Real talk: Being rude, dismissive, or laughing at bullying isn't "edgy"—it's an unattractive vibe. It screams insecurity, pushes people away, and shows zero empathy. 👎 True confidence lifts others up. Choose kindness. That's the real glow-up! #KindnessMatters #SlaughterStigma
ALT List of Not Attractive Manners #SlaughterStigma The Bender Leadership Academy logo. Making fun of people who are different than you. Not caring about others. Being cold and distant from people. Laughing when others are rude.

A century ago, Black physicians built hospitals, clinics and medical schools across the South — only to see them dismantled by policy, segregation and an influential report.
Investigative journalist Nicole Carr traced that history through her own family and found the consequences are still being felt today. to.pbs.org/43DIBDE

Insurance premiums should reflect risk, not race.
So when homeowners in predominantly Black communities are paying substantially more, even when researchers account for factors like rebuilding costs, roof age and credit, we should be asking some serious questions.
