Black History Month is an opportunity to honor and celebrate the Black leaders who shape our world and culture. Throughout February, we’ll be launching exclusive content and collections that amplify the voices of Black creators, artists, and businesses, both within and outside our surrounding neighborhoods. While we use this time to honor their achievements and contributions, we will also honor the legacy of those who lost their lives in the fight for racial justice. Our commitment to uplifting Black voices, educating and improving ourselves and our communities, and recognizing the invaluable contributions of the Black community will be celebrated this month and well beyond.
