One Big Thing: Black History Month
Join us and spread the word to your community
Each year, February is celebrated as Black History Month, a federally observed recognition of the contributions African Americans have made to this country and a time to reflect on the continued struggle for racial justice. Understanding Black history and learning more about systemic racism is essential as our country faces backlash to civil rights activism such as the George Floyd protests. This month, We Hold These Truths will aim to amplify Black voices and stories to continue the conversation about racial justice, equality and civil rights.
