CELEBRATING DESCENDANTS
WHERE ARE WE NOW?
This month-long celebration is a chance to celebrate Black achievement and provide a fresh reminder to take stock of where we are now and give visibility to the people and organizations helping to create change. A continued engagement with history is vital as it helps us remember the past, give context for the present, and the possibilities that lie ahead.
