African Americans who have influenced our lives for the better

Black History Month

To recognize all the struggles the African American people have been through and what was done to achieve them.

To remember America’s history: we are all Americans and have an equal right to be here.

To honor those brave people who had big dreams and lived them so others could follow their own dream.

Why do we celebrate Black History?
