It’s #BlackHistoryMonth
This month is a time for highlighting and celebrating the many accomplishments and contributions made to the scientific, educational, and social justice fabric of this country by those in the Black community as these contributions often go unnoticed.
Read their stories. Uplift their voices. Share and comprehend their accomplishments, their struggles, their persistence, and their innovations. It is vital to recognize Black history because to truly understand our nation’s history, we all need to better understand Black history.
As a Black biracial person myself, this month is very important to me. To kick off the first day of Black History Month, I’d like to share this timeline created by the ASBMB highlighting important achievements in the life sciences made by Black scientists. https://www.asbmb.org/diversity/a-history-of-black-scientists
