Black history is American history. Not every piece of that history is pleasant to remember, and some events may spark difficult emotions and conversations, but we must still teach it to our students, in age-appropriate ways, to ensure we don’t repeat our mistakes. This bill not only will help us celebrate Black history every day—it will protect that history from being erased. https://actionnetwork.org/letters/african-american-history-act
