County Executive George Latimer Statement on Black History Month 2021.
“Each year we designate this month to recognize, celebrate and honor the extraordinary history and accomplishments of African-American culture. This month is also a time to reflect on the injustices faced by African-Americans in our nation’s history. Injustices that this past year shined an incomparable light on. We must commit to take further action. We must honor the memories of those tragically taken from us by fixing these injustices. A path forward together does not come without righting what was wrong. It is on all of us to find that path and take it.”
