“Look Around and See Every day is Black History February is a reminder that history was created by men and women who look like you and me. ” Tomeria Jordan
According to history.com, "Black History Month is an annual celebration of achievements by African Americans and a time for recognizing their central role in U.S. history. Also known as African American History Month, the event grew out of “Negro History Week,” the brainchild of noted historian Carter G. Woodson and other prominent African Americans." Blackhistorymonth.gov noted that Carter G. Woodson "believed that truth could not be denied and that reason would prevail over prejudice." Since 1976 in the USA Black History Month has been designated and celebrated in the month of February.
