Episode Synopsis

Black History Month was started by a Black educator.
Black History Month is Black education.
This video focuses on the origins of Black History Month and the legacy of Dr. Carter G. Woodson known as the Father of Black History. The video was originally recorded and streamed via YouTube.
What originated as Black History Week eventually evolved into what we have come to know today as Black History Month.
Founded by a Black educator, Black History Month needs Black educators to take a prominent and proactive role in the planning and design of activities and events related to Black history. Black educators at all levels should be included and involved in Black History Month program plans. Black History Month programs and events need the input and involvement of Black educators to keep Black education as the centerpiece of any celebration of Black historic achievement and attainment.
