Weekend Writing Assignment!

Due Monday, February 20, 2012

 

February is "Black History Month," a time to commemorate African-Americans and events that have changed the world.

 

Celebrating Black History began in 1926, when Dr. Carter G. Woodson, a Harvard Ph.D., initiated "Negro History Week." Dr. Woodson, a historian, chose the second week in February because it included the birthdays of Frederick Douglass and Abraham Lincoln. In 1976, the week-long observance was extended to the entire month of February in order to have enough time for celebratory programs and activities.

 

Do you believe that Black History Month limits the recognition of African Americans? Why or why not?

 

• Write at least 3 paragraphs to answer these questions.
• Each paragraph needs to include at least 5 complete sentences
• Make sure to indent each paragraph and to use your margins correctly.
• Don't forget to check your spelling, punctuation, and grammar.
