February is Black History Month!
Black History Month, or National African American History Month, is an annual celebration of achievements by black Americans and a time for recognizing the central role of African Americans in U.S. history. The event grew out of "Negro History Week," the brainchild of noted historian Carter G. Woodson and other prominent African Americans. We have a vast selection of fiction and nonfiction that celebrate Black History at both Island Indies!
