Black History Month is dedicated to preserving and honoring the accomplishments and triumphs of African Americans throughout U.S. history.
The UB event calendar includes the entirety of events being held on campus in February, along with guest speakers invited on behalf of different associations.
Here are some of them:
The Intercultural and Diversity Center (IDC) is holding events throughout the month, including its “Tough Topics” series. The events held revolve around discussions of Black love, the intersec- tionality of the Black community, and the destruction of Black affirmations. IDC events are held in room 240 in the Student Union.
The Black Student Union, one of the biggest clubs on campus, is also holding events. One of the club’s most-known is Black explosion. This event is an annual fashion show which is held to “celebrate, uplift and empower artistic expression in the Black community through fashion, art and music amongst students and the community,” as stated on the UBlinked event page.
