Black History Month is in full swing, a great time to honor the achievements, contributions, and legacy of African Americans such as Harriet Tubman, Sojourner Truth, Marcus Garvey, Martin Luther King Jr., Malcolm X, and Rosa Parks.
In modern times, besides remembering these pioneers and civil rights activists, we also highlight the Black and Afro-Latino community, Black leaders in politics, science, culture, and beyond.
