Honoring Black History Month

This Black History Month we honor the legacy of resilience and leadership that has shaped our nation.

It’s important to recognize the contributions of Black disabled activists who have fought for both racial justice and disability rights. One such leader is Harriet Tubman, who lived with epilepsy, led countless individuals to freedom through the Underground Railroad. Her courage, determination, and unwavering commitment to justice inspire us all.

Let’s celebrate and reflect on the rich history of Black leaders—especially those whose stories have often been left out of mainstream narratives.

A Black History Month poster highlights Harriet Tubman. It describes her leading enslaved people to freedom via the Underground Railroad. An old photograph of Tubman in a dress and scarf is shown. The poster has text boxes on a colorful background.
