Black History Month was established in 1976
by Afro-Americans for the Study of
Afro-American Life and History. The
month-long celebration was an expansion of
Negro History Week, which was established in
1926 by Carter G. Woodson, director of what
was then known as the Association for the
Study of Negro Life and History. Woodson
selected the week in February that embraced
the birthdays of both Frederick Douglass and
Abraham Lincoln. The celebration may have
had its origins in the separate efforts of
Mary Church Terrell, a member of Delta Sigma
Theta Sorority, Inc., and the African
American collegiate fraternity Omega Phi
Psi. With the rise of the Black Power
Movement in the 1960s, many in the African
American community began to complain about
the insufficiency of a week-long
celebration. In 1976, the ASNLH, having
changed its name to The Association for the
Study of Afro-American Life and History,
responded to the popular call, citing the
50th annual celebration and America's
bicentennial. For more info, click
