Black History Month
February is Black History Month and in celebration
we'll feature a different book each week. Black
History Month as a concept dates back
to the early twentieth-century. However it was not
made “official” until March 2008 when Senator
Donald Oliver's motion received unanimous approval
from Parliament. For more information, visit the Government of Canada website
