Happy Black History Month! As we start this new year, it's crucial we remember that the fight for true racial equality is not over. One of the ways Black people continue to be oppressed is through the silencing of Black narratives and history. If we as people don't learn our past, we are doomed to repeat it. So today, please choose to take some time and educate yourself about the struggle people of color have had, and celebrate those who are making moves today.
We’ve rounded up seven publications that cover everything from stories of successful black business people to a close up look at everyone’s fav, MLK, Jr.
