Black History Month is a time to recognize the lived, shared experience of all Black folks who have fundamentally shaped, challenged, and ultimately strengthened America. It’s about taking an unvarnished look at the past so that we can create a better future. As we mark 100 years of celebrating Black history, let’s honor the sacrifices of the leaders who came before us, and recommit ourselves to continuing their work.

Black History Month is a time to recognize all the ways Black culture has shaped American life – from our music and art to our literature and sports. Let’s celebrate the perseverance, courage, and tenacity of those who paved the way for us, and do our best to follow in their footsteps.

As Black History Month comes to a close, we reflect on what an honor it is to shine on the biggest stage and serve as role models for the next generation of young Black athletes. 🤝
