CountOnNews2: Gallery at International African American Museum to honor Congressman James Clyburn
CHARLESTON, S.C. (WCBD) – Congressman James Clyburn’s service to South Carolinians will be honored through a gallery at the International African American Museum in Charleston.
The museum’s Carolina Gold Gallery – which offers a look at the transformative impact of enslaved people whose labor shaped and built the lucrative rice industry – will bear Clyburn’s name thanks to a $1 million donation from a Texas-based couple.
Clyburn has been a long-term supporter of the museum and the board’s first chair.
