It means to celebrate the history of black history, celebrate that the black slaves became free for a reason . They are no different than us .. they were created by god like us. Celebrate the famous black men and women. Like Martin Luther King Jr. he fought for us . He made world history. Rosa Parks did not want to give up her seat to a white man cause she believed she had the right to sit where she wanted to sit . She fought for herself and she stood up for herself. She was not afraid to speak her own mind . Now today Blacks are free and we celebrate that , We are all created equally, we are all brother and sisters. That is what this month means to me . Happy Black history month !

Black History is a time when African-Americans

Can take the time out and see what the people before

Them fought for.

Black History is a time of rejoicing, celebrating

And thanking those African-Americans for giving

Us hope or a life lesson that could be used.

Black History is a time when we can be reminded

About what it means to be an African-American.

Black History isn’t just about all the bad times

We’ve been through. It’s about integrity, leadership, and determination.

It’s about showing your true character.

THAT’S WHAT BLACK HISTORY MONTH MEANS TO ME.
