When Carter G. Woodson envisioned that a week be set aside to celebrate African Americans, he laid the marker to commemorate the contributions and embrace the legacy of our Nation’s history. In celebration of Black History Month, we honor the courage and contributions of those that came before us ~ the Spread Love way...through music!

Lets celebrate who we are and where we've come from and realize the collective power we have to strengthen our communities -- not just this month, but all year.
