In 2026, the United States marks 100 years of Black history commemorations, honoring the inaugural "Negro History Week" established by Dr. Carter G. Woodson in February 1926.
This centennial celebrates a century of recognizing Black contributions, evolving from a week-long initiative to a national month, highlighting the enduring, 365-day, 1926-2026 and the importance of African American heritage in shaping the nation. |
