Dr. Carter G. Woodson established Negro History Week in 1926. This initiative later evolved into Black History Month, which is celebrated annually throughout February in both the United States and Canada. This year marks the 100th anniversary of the first organised effort to formally acknowledge and challenge the systemic exclusion of Black history and contributions.
