As we begin Black History Month, we’ll spotlight the barrier-breaking journeys of several influential African Americans and honor the rich histories, incredible achievements, and enduring legacies of Black individuals who have shaped our country.

Why February?
In 1926, a dedicated week in February was established to honor Black achievements, aligning with the birthdays of Abraham Lincoln and Frederick Douglass. This initiative evolved into Black History Month in 1976, under President Gerald Ford’s advocacy, to acknowledge the often overlooked accomplishments of Black Americans across all fields.

Honoring Trailblazers
Throughout history, countless Black individuals have broken barriers and paved the way for progress through their ideas, passions, and actions. Over the coming weeks, we will highlight some remarkable people and tell their stories.
