Black History Month is an annually observed commemorative month originating in the United States, where it is also known as African-American History Month. It is to remember important people and events in the history of the African diaspora. Without African people, the world wouldn’t be the same. So many good things have come from our African neighbors and friends. It’s a good and right thing to celebrate all the things this community has contributed to America and the world.
February is Black History Month. It’s also strange that this important celebration falls on the shortest month of the year. People of African heritage have made significant contributions to the world, don’t forget that. Thank you to all whom we honor this month for making the world better for everyone. Some in power would want you to forget that bit of information.
Black History Month is an annual celebration of achievements by African Americans and a time for recognizing their central role in U.S. history. There are also recognitions of Black History Month in Canada, United Kingdom and The Netherlands. You cannot tell the story of a nation without Black stories being heard. I am glad to learn more and to be a part of this.
