This bill directs the Secretary of the Interior to conduct a study on the feasibility of establishing the African Burial Ground International Memorial Museum and Educational Center at the African Burial Ground National Monument in New York City. The study will assess the museum's potential to serve as a memorial, examine African cultural traditions, explore the institution of slavery, and promote collaboration among institutions. It will also evaluate the availability of suitable collections, the potential for understanding the international slave trade, and the level of public and local support for the museum. The Secretary must submit a report to Congress detailing the study's findings, including costs and recommendations, within three years of funding availability.
