CAPITAL JEWISH MUSEUM:  Blacklisted: An American Story.  

Join friends and neighbors on this timely exhibition that explores the intersections of politics, antisemitism, freedom of speech, and national security during the Red Scare of the 1940s and 1950s.  Blacklisted: An American Story explores the Hollywood blacklist and the federal government’s loyalty investigations that upended thousands of lives during the Red Scare. Through powerful personal stories, rare artifacts, and film clips, the exhibition reveals how fear, politics, and identity collided—and what was lost when dissent was silenced.

For security reasons, the museum requires that all guests register their names in advance.  We will take care of that when you register.  A government-issued ID is also required.    

Meet: Takoma Metro at 10am. We’ll take the Red Line to Judiciary Square and walk about two blocks to the museum from there.
