Join SCC in Reflection & Celebration!! ✨

Black History Month is a dedicated period to recognize and celebrate the significant contributions and achievements of Black individuals throughout history. This month serves as an opportunity to honor the rich cultural heritage, triumphs, and struggles of Black communities. However, the essence and spirit of this observance extend far beyond just one month. It is crucial to recognize and integrate the celebration of Black history and achievements into our daily lives throughout the year.

This month is not just a time for the Black community to reflect on their past; it’s a period for all of us to celebrate diversity, understand the impact of racial diversity on our history, and commit to an inclusive future.
