In 1926, Carter G. Woodson founded Negro History Week, which was to raiseawareness to the contributions of people of African descent made to worldhistory. It was observed in black schools, churches and YMCAs around thecountry. But over the decades, Woodson's idea has blossomed into a celebrationof African-American culture that became Black History Month in 1976 to coincidewith the nation's bicentennial. Black history month is now being celebrated bydiverse communities in the United States and throughout the world. Woodson believed that historians had whitewashed the contributions blacks havemade to the world. His idea was that Negro History Week and, later, BlackHistory Month -- would revise what we know about the world we live inadvocating similar arguments that proponents of African-centered education saytoday.
