Black History Month 2020
Black History Month (UK) 2020 in United Kingdom began on Thursday 1st October and ends on Saturday 31st October.
It began as a way of remembering important people and events in the history of the African diaspora. It is celebrated in February in the United States and Canada, while in Ireland, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom it is observed in October.
Black History Month always provides a fantastic opportunity for us to recognize the outstanding contributions people of African and Caribbean descent have.
