This month is Black History Month. Let’s all pay tribute during the entire month of FEBRUARY to generations of African Americans who have faced adversity and triumphed to achieve full American citizenship. Visit AfricanAmericanHistoryMonth.gov to learn about The Library of Congress exhibit showcasing the Rosa Parks collection. The expansive Parks’ collection includes 1000s of pages of personal correspondence, papers and other writings, letters from presidents, and about 2,500 photos, as well as her Presidential Medal of Freedom and Congressional Gold Medal.
