New NMAI includes focus on urban Indians


The urban Indian experience will be part of the new National Museum of American Indian in Washington, D.C.

The museum looked to Chicago, home to the eighth largest concentration of Indians. The city's American Indian Center has been around for 50 years.

The museum opens in September on the National Mall.
