I was at the History museum too, always have to stop by and say hi to the First Ladies when I'm in DC. I was not at all impressed with Michelle Obama's inaugural dress her lapdog media and fan sites like to gush over.......way too busy for my taste with the illusion of cotton balls and little silver spiders glued all over it. The fabric was not white, nor ivory, but a dingy bedsheet that's been sitting in grandma's closet for too long. The sheer fugliness stood out against all the other FLOTUS's dresses on display.Oh, did you see the Greensboro Lunch Counter show? I was "in" it
This lunch counter:http://americanhistory.si.edu/brown/history/6-legacy/freedom-struggle-2.htmlThe actual lunch counter from the Woolworth's sit-in is on display on the main level .... right side.I just happened to mosey in at the beginning of one of their shows, sat in the audience and by virtue I was holding one of the original 4 menus being passed around......I was in the show (sat in the first seat). Here's a video (I'm not in it!) from last fall:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4dgvFe3-vyEThe whole show was 20 minutes, and it was an awesome experience. Only because I was a child of the 60's and remember feeling the pain for these people.
