Day 1: Celebrating 29-Days Of Black History In Brooklyn

OurBKSocial begins its 29-day celebration of Black History Month by remembering Dr. Carter Godwin Woodson.

Dr. Woodson was born on December 19, 1875 in New Canton, Virginia. A natural scholar and educator, Woodson studied at the Sorbonne in Paris, France and earned his Ph.D in history from Harvard University in 1912. He authored several articles, books and founded the Journal of Negro History. Dr. Woodson’s profound work, The Mis-Education of the Negro, is a must read.

Annoyed by the misrepresentation and the missing contributions of “the Negro” in American history and text books, Dr. Woodson found it necessary to initiate a celebration of Black people. He created Negro History Week in 1926. Dr. Woodson chose the month of February to highlight the many contributions of the Negro because both Fredrick Douglas and Abraham Lincoln were born in February. Negro History Week became Black History Month fifty years later in 1976.

Here in Brooklyn we honor Dr. Carter G. Woodson everyday. Public School 23 on Willoughby Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant bears his name.
