Tune in as Philadelphia Black Museum Professionals and Artists discuss strategies and modern complexities surrounding Black History Month.
Online
In 1926, Carter G. Woodson announced the first-ever Negro History Week. 50 years later, Black History Month was adopted as a nationwide observance during the celebration of the U.S. bicentennial in 1976. Now, after 95 years of this American tradition, we gather to reflect upon what goes on "behind the scenes" in preparation for Black history month as well as what Black museum professionals and artists envision for the future of this observance.
