Black History Month originated as "Negro History Week," which was established in 1926 by historian Carter G. Woodson to promote the study of African American history. In 1976, during the United States Bicentennial, President Gerald Ford officially recognized Black History Month, expanding the celebration to the entire month of February. This change aimed to encourage a broader awareness of the contributions and history of African Americans. Since then, February has been designated as Black History Month in the U.S. and other countries.
The father of Negro History Week, which is now called Black History Month, was Carter G. Woodson. He established Negro History Week in 1926 to bring attention to the contributions and achievements of African Americans throughout history. The week was later expanded to a month-long celebration in 1976.
