Black History Month centennial channels angst over anti - DEI climate into education , free resources
In the 100th year since the nation's earliest observances of Black History Month — which began when scholar Carter G. Woodson pioneered the first Negro History Week — celebrations will go on.
AI Summary
The upcoming centennial of Black History Month marks a significant milestone in the nation's observance of African American heritage. This year's celebrations coincide with growing concerns over a perceived anti-diversity, equity, and inclusion climate. As a result, some organizations are redirecting their focus towards education and providing free resources to promote understanding and appreciation of Black History. This shift in emphasis may be seen as a response to the current climate, but its impact remains to be seen. The availability of free resources could potentially increase accessibility to information about Black History, making it more inclusive and widely available. However, the effectiveness of this approach in addressing the underlying issues remains uncertain.
