Sandy Mitchell, of All Holiday Cafe, gives us insight into the origin of Black History Month, going back to 1926, when Prof. Carter J. Woodsen designated Negro History Week in mid-February, near the birthdays of  Abraham Lincoln and Frederick Douglass. 
She also provides a round-up of posts about Black History Month around b5media.  She included my Quilting and Patchwork post, Quilters Celebrate Black History Month.
Do you have anything special on your blog for this event?
