Honoring Black History Month

What is Black History Month and why do we celebrate?

Black History Month was created to focus attention on the contributions of African Americans to the United States.

It honors all Black people from all periods of U.S. history, from the enslaved people first brought over from Africa in the early 17th century to African Americans living in the United States today.

Black History Month is celebrated annually from February 1 through March 1.
