Celebrate Black History Month with Britannica

In February we will celebrate Black History Month! Britannica's Guide to Black History presents a vast array of articles, hundreds of images, and a wide assortment of multimedia clips.

This guide traces two millennia of black history, and the browse features enable you to pinpoint the central people, places, topics, and events covered in Black History.

Encyclopaedia Britannica's Guide to Black History represents an effort to trace the African American experience and achievements in the United States and elsewhere.
