Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
The Smithsonian Institution is a treasure trove of cutting-edge research and priceless historical artifacts. But much of that knowledge is inaccessible to the public, particularly to those who aren’t able to make the trek to Washington. Now, the Smithsonian is launching an initiative to bring its museums into the 21st century and put more of its resources online. We talk with its new leader about launching this massive undertaking.
Guests
- G. Wayne Clough Secretary, Smithsonian Institution
