February is recognized as Black History Month in the United States. So, I want to point you to some helpful resources celebrating the Spirit’s work in and through the lives of our brothers and sisters of yesteryear. These links are only to get you started. More information is available. Be sure to look for it. And if you come across an excellent resource to be linked to this page, please share it in the comments.
