Join the National Museum of American Diplomacy (NMAD) on Wednesday, February 15th, at noon to commemorate Black History Month.
NMAD’s Public Historian, Dr. Alison Mann, will feature the story of Robert Robinson, a Black American who unwillingly spent 44 years in Soviet Russia, and discuss how Bill Davis, a Black Foreign Service Officer, assisted in his repatriation.
Following the presentation, NMAD invites you to view accompanying items from our collection, including the original State Department ledger that helps tell Robinson’s story. At the conclusion of the program, NMAD staff will be present to answer questions, and visitors are welcome to explore NMAD’s preview exhibit, Diplomacy is Our Mission, until 1:30 pm.
NMAD is located at 330 21st St NW, Washington, DC 20006, in the Harry S Truman Building. Visitors must enter at the 21st Street entrance to the U.S. Department of State (the glass building on 21st Street between D Street and C Street, NW). The talk will take place downstairs in the lower level.

I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm sure you're thrilled by your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
If you are in fact human, please email me at guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can check if your designation was made in error. Given your number of hits, that's unlikely but what the hell.
