​Let us celebrate the New Year of the Tiger, and Black History Month

Black History Month

Every February, people in the United States celebrate the achievements and history of African Americans as part of Black History Month.

While the Asian Americans are celebrating the Lunar New Year, February is also Black History Month that honors the long history of all African Americans,  we r are reminded to reflect on the contributions, and especially the struggle for racial equality and justice by African Americans.

Happy Black History Month to our African Americans across the Philadelphia and the United States.


For children, here is the

 



Black History Month 2022 events in the greater Philadelphia area

Asian Americans have been suffering much racial injustice and hatred in recent years, the long battle for justice by our fellow African Americans reminds us Asain Americans that change is hard, we must stand in solidarity with African Americans and other minorities in our struggle for justice!
It takes a unified community to make a change!
We all share the dream that Dr. Kings once declared,
It is our dream!
