POSITIVE THINKING SPACEコミュのAFRICAN AWARENESS MONTH: INSPIRATIONAL QUOTES THEME

“African Awareness Month” (also called “Black History
Month”) is celebrated in the month of February in the United
States of America and in Canada. It is a celebration of the
contributions of African and African American people have made
to these countries and the collective human experience.

It is also a reminder that human history is a collective and all
groups have made significant contributions. Ultimately a greater
understanding of the contributions that different groups have
made to our human history will bring us closer to understanding
that we are all a part of the same human family and there is
only one “race” of people, the “human race!”

“Black History Month” was created by a historian Carter G
Woodson in 1926 as “Negro History” week and later evolved into
an entire month of celebrations! For the month of February I
will post quotes by famous African and African American people!

My purpose for sharing these inspirational quotes with you is to
encourage you and I to think about our lives in a different way,
perhaps a more positive way. By changing the way we think and
talk about our lives in this precious moment we have an
opportunity to create a more enjoyable life experience.
