The inclusion of Bill Cosby work in the Smithsonian’s upcoming exhibit will now mention the sexual allegations against him after several of his accusers criticized the museum for not telling the whole story.

The National Museum of African American History and Culture (NMAAHC) is currently working on an exhibit called “Taking the Stage,” which “explores the history of African American participation in film, theatre, and television.”

The NMAAHC, a Smithsonian museum whose doors will open in September 2016, aims to be a place where visitors “can learn about the richness and diversity of the African American experience, what it means to their lives and how it helped us shape this nation.”
