W.E.B. Du Bois -- American History

Celebrating American History in February

W.E.B. Du Bois --

an American sociologist, historian, civil rights activist, Pan-Africanist, author, and editor. He was the first African American to earn a doctorate from Harvard University. Du Bois was one of the co-founders of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) and wrote extensively on race relations, including his most famous work, "The Souls of Black Folk." He also advocated for Pan-Africanism and was a vocal critic of the treatment of black people in the United States.

Black History Month is an annual observance in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom for remembrance of important people and events in the history of the African diaspora. It is celebrated in February in the United States and Canada, and in October in the United Kingdom. The observance was first established as "Negro History Week" by historian Carter G. Woodson in 1926, and later expanded to a month-long celebration in 1976. The goal of Black History Month is to recognize and honor the contributions and achievements of African Americans throughout history.
