A re-created lunch counter exhibit at the National Museum of African American History and Culture commemorates the Greensboro sit-ins of 1960, when four Black college students sat down at a segregated Woolworth's lunch counter in Greensboro, North Carolina, and refused to leave after being denied service. Their peaceful protest, and the sit-in movement it inspired across the American South, became one of the defining tactics of the civil rights movement, spreading nonviolent direct action to dozens of cities within weeks. The interactive installation at the museum, located on the National Mall in Washington, D.C., allows visitors to sit at the counter and view archival footage and images documenting the era's civil disobedience, including protest signs reading "Down with Segregation" and "Freedom." The exhibit sits within the museum's civil rights history galleries, which trace the movement from the mid-twentieth century forward. The National Museum of African American History and Culture, the Smithsonian's nineteenth museum, opened in 2016 as the only national museum dedicated exclusively to African American history and culture, drawing on a collection built from scratch after 2005 under founding director Lonnie Bunch III.
