Black History Month

Black History Month is an annual celebration of achievements by African Americans and a time for recognizing their central role in U.S. history. A great resource to learn more about LGBTQIA+ people and Black History is the BlackPast website. Learn more by clicking here.

Visit the National Museum of African American History & Culture website for in-depth, comprehensive learning, and, more locally, The Pōpolo Project, a “Hawai‘i-based nonprofit organization that redefines what it means to be Black in Hawai‘i and in the world through cultivating radical reconnection to ourselves, our community, our ancestors, and the land, changing what we commonly think of as Local and highlighting the vivid, complex diversity of Blackness.”
