Black History Month

 

You might remember that last year around this time, I found a mural similar to this one featuring three very talented and accomplished people who I had not heard of before.  You can see it here.  I recently found another similar mural, this time featuring three very well known and loved people.  February is Black History Month here in the U.S.  It's a perfect time to reflect on the many accomplishments that are sometimes overlooked.  

Taking part in Monday Murals.

  5. I like it. I remember 40 years ago at a Black History Month program, my boss gave a talk and stated that black history is not really taught in our public schools, so we needed this occasion to make up for that. I thought for sure by now we would’ve had a more even curriculum, but judging by the opposition to “CRT,” people are not going to allow it. I am very disappointed in people.
