Her collection also includes papers about slaves, photos, movies, sheet music, and personal letters by black leaders and artists.It is one of the biggest personal collections of African American history and culture in the United States.

Avery Clayton’s dream was to create a museum for his mother’s treasures.Scholars say that Mrs. Clayton’s collection is very important. Without her work, part of African American heritage (遗产) would have been lost. “We didn’t know these things existed(存在),” a man from California’slibrary says.

Sixty years ago, human beings first reached the top of Mount Qomolangma, known as Mount Everest in the West. But the increase in climbers is turning the world’s highest mountain into the “world’s highest junkyard(垃圾场)”.

Every year, more than 700 climbers spend nearly two months on Mount Qomolangma. They have left human waste and all kinds of rubbish, including oxygen bottles, broken tents, and plastic bags, according to Ang Tshering Sherpa, chief of the Nepal Mountaineering Association.

“The waste has become a health danger to people in the area since they depend on water from rivers fed by the melting glaciers(融化的冰川),” Sherpa said.

More and more people have realized the danger that Mount Qomolangma is facing and they are now taking active actions. To deal with the problem, Nepal has supported a special team of explorers and volunteers to clean the mountain since 2008. So far they have brought down 15,000kg of rubbish. Nepal also started to ask each climber to bring down 8 kg of rubbish in 2014.

On the Chinese side of the mountain, Tibet(西藏) will collect a cleaning fee of $100-200 (620-1240 yuan) per climber starting from this year. A program named “Mount Qomolangma Action at the Third Pole of the Earth” also started in 2004 to clear up the mountain.
