In this episode of Pave It Black, NAPA legends Peter Wilson and Ron White explain how the asphalt pavement industry became part of the National Museum of American History's America on the Move exhibit, a look at transportation's role in shaping the country. Wilson and White walk through the fundraising campaign that made the exhibit possible, the logistics of producing and transporting a finished asphalt sample across state lines, and the installation process at the Smithsonian itself.
