The Origin Of Black History Month

February 1, 2025 By albert


Celebrating Black History


Let’s take a moment to honor Dr. Carter G. Woodson, the brilliant historian whose vision and dedication brought Black history to the forefront.

At a time when Black achievements were overlooked, he knew the power of preserving and sharing these stories not just for the Black community, but for the world.

His passion led to what we now celebrate as Black History Month, a time to recognize the achievements, struggles, and resilience of Black pioneers.

Dr. Woodson’s work wasn’t just about history it was about empowerment, identity, and justice. He understood that knowing our past shapes our future, and he devoted his life to ensuring that Black excellence and perseverance would never be erased.

As we celebrate Black History Month, let’s continue his mission by learning, sharing, and uplifting these stories all year long. Thank you, Dr. Woodson, for lighting the way.

Check out the video to learn why Black History Month is so important. Much love and respect to you all as we honor the legacy of Dr. Carter G. Woodson. [Read more…]

Colin Kaepernick’s “Peaceful” Protest

Colin Kaepernick was born November 3, 1987 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. He is a Collegiate/NFL quarterback and civil rights activist. He played six seasons for the San Francisco 49ers in the National Football League (NFL) and led them to the Super Bowl in 2013.

Although Colin Kaepernick was a professional quarterback in the NFL he is best known for taking a knee in peaceful protest against police brutality towards people of color.  The peaceful protest originally started with Kaepernick sitting during the anthem, but after having a candid conversation with US Army veteran Nate Boyer, together they found a more respectful way to protest. Taking a knee is respected in various religions, the military and is a sign of injury and/or submission in all sports which reflects African-American’s sentiments towards the treatment of Black people in America.

Kaepernick alongside Eric Reid filed collusion grievances against the NFL league saying they were black listed because of their peaceful protest during the National Anthem at games. Their grievance was settled out of court for an undisclosed amount. Kaepernick continues to be an activist for social justice and marginalized communities.

Black History Is Everywhere

February 8, 2022 By albert

Although we as a nation celebrate Black History during the month of February, it is worth noting black history has an affect on our lives 365 days of the year.

Without black inventors and social activists, our daily lives would be completely different.

Here is an interpretation of how a day in the life could be perceived which is beautifully articulated by Ms. Perkins to her class.
