(4 min read)<\/strong> Every year, in the month of February, people of all colors in the United States celebrate the difficult history and amazing achievements of African Americans. This celebration started back in 1926 with a single week in February, and it continued growing in both time frame, as well as the place of the celebration. Today, thanks to social media, most of the world celebrates the whole month of February as\u00a0 Black History Month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Initially, The Association for the Study of Negro Life and History declared the \u201cNegro History Week\u201d as a way to recognize the herculean efforts and contributions of African Americans in the US. Both Frederick Douglass, a brave abolitionist, and former president Abraham Lincoln were born in the second week of February, so that week was determined to be the celebration week. Later on, in 1976, US President Gerald Ford, extended the recognition to a whole month to \u201chonor the too-often neglected accomplishments of Black Americans in every area of endeavor throughout our history.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Black History Month honors all Black people from all eras, from the enslaved people brought over from the African continent in the 17th century to all African Americans living in the US and the rest of the world today. One of the most notable names that is often spotlighted in February is Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Dr. King courageously fought for equal rights for Black people in the 1950s and 1960s, and his \u201cI Have A Dream\u201d speech is quoted to this day as a symbol of freedom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other renowned figures that are often quoted and remembered during this month include Thurgood Marshall, who was the first African-American justice appointed to the United States Supreme Court in 1967; astronaut Mae Jemison, who was the first African-American astronaut to venture to space in 1992; and former president Barack Obama, who was the first-ever elected African-American president of the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, it is important to note that during the month of February, African-American people are celebrated in all facets of life. We celebrate them simply because they are still here among us, thriving after all the struggles they\u2019ve been through. So whether your goat is Jordan or Lebron, you honor them. Whether your favorite author is Tananarive Due or Jodie Slaughter, celebrate them. Let\u2019s not fight who\u2019s better this month. let\u2019s leave gouging each other\u2019s eyes out for March\u2026 Just kidding. But truly, when it comes to Black excellence, we can just stand on the sidelines and admire the Simone Biles-es and Jordan Peele-s of the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So before you ask, no, it is not \u201ccringe\u201d to give your favorite Black nurse flowers or buy your elderly Black neighbor a new hat for no reason in February. It is not \u201ccringe\u201d to highlight that you are reading solely books by Black authors on Instagram during this month. It is also not \u201ccringe\u201d to listen only to DMX and Bill Withers on Spotify, and casually mention that in a conversation. It is not cringe, we all do what we can. Not because we want to be cool, but because it is necessary to remember.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The mosaics featured here are just some of our personal favorites, but there are plenty of African-American feature mosaics artworks to choose from. We can make any mosaic artwork to highlight the sheer beauty and excellence that is so prevalent among Black people all over the world, and we were and will keep doing that whole year long, not just in February.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
