WELCOME BACK!
FEBRUARY IS THE MONTH OF GROUNDHOGS, VALENTINES AND PRESIDENTIAL BIRTHDAYS.... AND MORE, MUCH MORE...
Black History Month...
From the History Channel website: http://www.history.com/topics/black-history/black-history-month
"Black History Month, or National African American History Month, is an annual celebration of achievements by black Americans and a time for recognizing the central role of African Americans in U.S. history. The event grew out of “Negro History Week,” the brainchild of noted historian Carter G. Woodson and other prominent African Americans. Since 1976, every U.S. president has officially designated the month of February as Black History Month. Other countries around the world, including Canada and the United Kingdom, also devote a month to celebrating black history." (PLEASE VIEW THE FOLLOWING 6 MIN VIDEO)
"The Harlem Hellfighters were an African-American infantry unit in WWI who spent more time in combat than any other American unit. Despite their courage, sacrifice and dedication to their country, they returned home to face racism and segregation from their fellow countrymen."
