This month, we shine our spotlight on blackhistorymonth.gov, a website created with contributions from:
- The Library of Congress
- The National Archives and Records Administration
- The National Endowment for the Humanities
- The National Gallery of Art
- The National Park Service
- The Smithsonian Institution
- The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum
On this website, you’ll find curated compilations of the contributions and lived experiences, both historic and contemporary, of Black people in the United States. Collections of images, audio and video along with links to beautiful exhibits created by the aforementioned institutions populate this online tribute to Black History Month. Please take the time to visit the site and share some of its content with your children as well as with their teachers. Take some time to acknowledge and celebrate Black History Month this February with your family.
