America’s Black History Month & Its Global Relevance

“In 1926, Dr. Carter G. Woodson initiated the celebration of Negro History Week, which corresponded with the birthdays of Frederick Douglass and Abraham Lincoln.

The Association for the Study of African American Life and History, ASALH, views the promotion of Black History Month as one of the most important components of advancing Dr.Woodson’s legacy.” Marvin DeLaney, President, ASALH.
