Black History Month

Black History Month

Celebrate the achievements of Black Explorers, trailblazers, scientists, leaders, and changemakers. Black History Month started as a U.S. celebration, but has garnered international participation in recent decades. This collection features both historical figures such as Sojourner Truth and Mary Seacole, as well as modern day National Geographic Explorers such as Carter Clinton and Tara Roberts. It also highlights how maps are used to tell stories about discriminatory practices and civil disturbances. From innovating technology to better understand our past and present to calculating humankind’s path to the moon and back, these stories offer insight and inspiration to learners from all backgrounds.
