'It's everybody's story' - African-American museum curator

Journalists in the USA have had their first chance to look inside the new National Museum of African American History and Culture. It's set to be opened by President Barack Obama in September and is intended to celebrate stories relating to the struggle and achievements of African American people.

Smithsonian African American Museum specialist, Mary Elliot, gave us a tour through her mind's eye.
