Black History

An educational guide on the history of black people in the United States and around the world.

"The more you know about your history, the more liberated you are."

Maya Angelou

Welcome!

This is a guide for Washburn University students with an interest in learning about black history in the United States and around the world. There is more to be said than could possibly be presented here, so we encourage anyone to continue with their own research. There is always so much to learn, and the librarians at Mabee Library are always ready to help! Questions and comments are welcome.
