   WASHINGTON, D.C. (NBC Washington) – A noose has been found at   
   the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and   
   Culture, according to the U.S. Park Police.   
      
   Tourists found the noose inside the museum’s exhibition on   
   segregation Wednesday afternoon, the Smithsonian Institution   
   said in a news release.   
      
   Park police removed the noose. The gallery was closed for about   
   an hour while police investigated.   
      
   “We were leaving the segregation gallery. We were walking   
   through and then the guard came up and said, ‘Every body out!   
   Every body out!’ So, they rushed us through, and at the time we   
   were not aware of what was going on. We just knew we had to   
   leave that area immediately,” tourist Tracy Grant told News4.   
      
   “It’s very hard. It’s very very very upsetting,” “We were very   
   emotional to begin with. This is history. This should not be   
   happening in this day and age,” Grant said.   
      
   The incident comes after a noose was found hanging from a tree   
   outside the Hirshorn Museum on Friday.   
      
   “We don’t let acts of cowardice like this deter us. We are, if   
   anything, even more vigilante and even more determined to tell   
   this important story,” National Museum of African American   
   History and Culture Deputy Director Kinshasha Holman-Conwill   
   said.   
      
   “The Smithsonian family stands together in condemning this act   
   of hatred and intolerance, especially repugnant in a museum that   
   affirms and celebrates the American values of inclusion and   
   diversity,” the secretary of the Smithsonian Institution David   
   Skorton said in an email to employees. “We will not be   
   intimated. Cowardly acts like these will not, for one moment,   
   prevent us from the vital work we do.”   
      
   In its release, the Smithsonian cited several other similar   
   incidents that have happened recently in other parts of the   
   country.   
      
   “Other nooses have been found on the Duke University campus, the   
   Port of Oakland in California, a fraternity house at the   
   University of Maryland, a middle school in Maryland, and at a   
   high school in Lakewood, California,” stated the release. “All   
   of them seem to be part of a larger wave of violence,   
   intimidation and hate crimes.”   
      
   All part of the liberal Democrat response to crooked Hillary   
   losing the election.
