Black History Month is a powerful reminder of the heritage 

Black History Month is a powerful reminder of the heritage, accomplishments, and impact that Black Americans have had on our world. It is especially relevant to healthcare providers because we care for people from every race and culture at the bedside, and we see firsthand the racial disparities that exist in health care.

“The more you know of your history, the more liberated you are.”
