I was pleased to see the AFR 3000: Black New York class so engaged during our recent fieldtrip to the African Burial Ground in Lower Manhattan: http://www.nps.gov/afbg/. I know that many of you snapped pictures in the museum and at the memorial. I want to give all of you the opportunity to share your photographs on the OpenLab.

Each student may upload a maximum of five ABG pictures. Please add your name to each picture. I hope that we will be able to view all of your pictures at once, like an exhibit. Please submit your pictures before Tuesday, September 30th.
