MIAMI-DADE – As the United States commemorates its 250th anniversary, the contributions of African Americans have been essential to the nation’s founding, development, and ongoing advancement. The year 2026 also marks a century since the inception of national observances related to Black History, as established by the founders of the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History (ASNLH).
The Miami Dade County Black Affairs Advisory Board (BAAB), in collaboration with various community organizations, acknowledges this month by honoring the African American diaspora through a series of events and programs.
