California University of Pennsylvania
2020 Black History Month
The Next 400 Years
Recognition * Restoration * Resilience
This month, we will use this platform to hear and reflect on the words and wisdom of historical and current inspirational African American and Black individuals.
May we all be inspired and encouraged to learn from one another and to treat each other with dignity and respect.
When we allow freedom to ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God’s children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual: “Free at last! Free at last! thank God Almighty, we are free at last! –Martin Luther King, Jr.
