Black History Month is a time where we honor and celebrate the contributions of African Americans throughout the history of the United States. Historian Carter Woodson conceived this month in 1962, and individuals in the U.S, Canada, and Germany continue to observe it in the month of February due to various reasons (Aljazeera, 2022). First, Black History Month unites people. Celebrating and recognizing the achievements of African Americans brings people from different ethnicity and backgrounds together, may it be at school or in the workplace. This month, individuals put their differences aside to commemorate history and take joy in Black people’s success. For instance, in the United States individuals from different backgrounds come together during the Grammy awards to celebrate and award black artist for their exemplary work
Second, Black History Month not only promotes diversity but also celebrates diversity. Promoting diversity is creating awareness that every individual is unique and has something to contribute to society. While celebrating diversity is conveying the idea that every individual is beautiful regardless of their color. This month honors great women as well as tells wonderful stories of their impact on society. Lastly, Black History Month takes individuals beyond the history books. Normally history books focus on major players who have had an impact in society, leaving out lesser-known individuals who have also accomplished incredible things. Rather than only relying on books, this month creates an opportunity for individuals to learn about different historical figures as well as appreciate their efforts. Such acts motivate other black individuals to not quit doing good in society as their efforts are always appreciated.
