Black History Month

From the slave ships of 1692
To the civil Rights era of the 60s
Black history should be taught
Lest it be forgot
Ida Wells, bless her soul
Established the NAACP
George Washington Carver worked tirelessly
on the development of hundreds of applications for new plants
Ruby Bridges at the age of 6
Help to desegregate an Elementary school
Thurgood Marshall was a great lawyer
And the first black man on the supreme court
The disappearance of diversity equity and inclusion
Should worry you
Protest its disappearance
Diversity matters
People of color matter
