BLACK HISTORY MONTH, CELEBRATED EVERY FEBRUARY IN THE U.S. AND CANADA, HONORS THE ACHIEVEMENTS, CONTRIBUTIONS, AND STRUGGLES OF AFRICAN AMERICANS IN U.S. HISTORY AND WORLDWIDE, STEMMING FROM HISTORIAN CARTER G. WOODSON’S EFFORTS TO BRING BLACK HISTORY INTO THE MAINSTREAM CURRICULUM, COINCIDING WITH LINCOLN AND FREDERICK DOUGLASS’S BIRTHDAYS TO RECOGNIZE THEIR ROLES IN BLACK LIBERATION. IT SERVES TO RAISE AWARENESS ABOUT BLACK HISTORY AND CULTURE, RECOGNIZE SYSTEMIC RACISM, AND CELEBRATE BLACK EXCELLENCE IN ALL FIELDS.

BLACK HISTORY MONTH IS CELEBRATED THROUGH EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS, MUSEUM EXHIBITS, AND COMMUNITY EVENTS THAT HONOR THE CONTRIBUTIONS AND HISTORY OF AFRICAN AMERICANS. KEY ACTIVITIES INCLUDE STUDYING BLACK HISTORY, SUPPORTING BLACK-OWNED BUSINESSES, ATTENDING CULTURAL PERFORMANCES, AND ENGAGING WITH LITERATURE AND DOCUMENTARIES.
