Black History Month

 

        We celebrate Black History Month to honor all of our African American ancestors achievements that made our  communities what they are today. In, 1976 Black History Mouth was created.

         Black History Month goes back to the beginning of the 20th Century. NAACP leader and legendary historian and educator Carter G. Woodson founded "Black History Week," which was expanded to Black History Month.
          We also celebrate our ancestors that helped free slaves and helped bring black and whites closer together.
     Other countries around the world, including Canada and the United Kingdom, also devote a month to celebrating black history.
