Federal Study on Black History Education Quality in Public Schools.
This law mandates the National Museum of African American History and Culture to conduct a three-year study assessing how Black history is taught in public elementary and secondary schools nationwide. The study will evaluate curriculum requirements, teaching quality, and materials used. The findings will inform Congress about the current state of historical education, potentially leading to future improvements in how students learn about African American triumphs, struggles, and the history of racism.
