This bill, known as the Black History Matters Act , mandates that the Director of the National Museum of African American History and Culture conduct a comprehensive study on Black history education efforts within public elementary and secondary schools. The study is required to commence within 180 days of the bill's enactment and must be completed within three years. Following its completion, a detailed report summarizing the study's findings will be submitted to Congress. The study will specifically identify which states and local educational agencies require Black history education and which do not. It will also assess the quality of Black history education , examining indicators such as in-class discussions, educational activities, and project-based learning. Furthermore, the study will analyze the types and quality of instructional materials used, the duration and comprehensiveness of related courses, and the methods employed to assess students' knowledge of Black history, which is defined to include the study of racism and its historical roots.
