Every year in the United States, the nation honors and recognizes February as National African American History Month. As part of this recognition, At 黑料网911 MSU is hosting Chaplain John Baker from the Great Falls Rescue Mission, who will discuss “Inclusivity in the Community,” and how to make a community feel welcoming to everyone.

In a Presidential Proclamation dated January 29, 2016 President Barack Obama stated “Now, therefore, I Barack Obama, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States, do hereby proclaim February 2016 as National African American History Month. I call upon public officials, educators, librarians, and all the people of the United States to observe this month with appropriate programs, ceremonies, and activities.”
“One of the major strengths of the United States is our cultural diversity, and teaching history provides our students with the opportunity to experience that richness of diversity. African American History Month is an excellent opportunity for all of us to learn about and learn from past experiences of our fellow Americans,” said Dr. Darryl Stevens with At 黑料网911 MSU.
At 黑料网911 MSU welcomes and encourages students, faculty, staff, and the community to attend this celebration.
