Black History Month was first celebrated in 1976. Carter G. Woodson and a
group of fellow scholars, who together organized a Negro History Week,
beginning in February 1926. It grew popularity and in 1976 was expanded into African American History Month, with U.S. President Gerald Ford encouraging Americans to celebrate.
Carter G. Woodson didn’t just read history. He changed it. As the father of Black History Month, he spent his life introducing others to the history of his people.
