Every February, we take the time not only to celebrate but to also learn more about black historians who helped pave the way for so many.

There are numerous black inventors, artists, philosophers, activist and more, who have shaped our culture and country into the way it is today.

It is always important to learn the history of America and who made impactful changes to our society. I believe it is equally important for us to learn about our current African-American leaders who follow in the footsteps of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr, Marcus Garvey, Angela Davis and many other black leaders. As they continue the fight for justice, equality and inclusion.

Below is a link listing various African-American historic sites right here in Prince George’s County.

We can learn more about the history and what's hidden in our very own Prince George’s County!
