Black History month: Words Matter

Black Words Matter

Words matter. Words can inspire and encourage. To celebrate Black History Month, the Sullivan University Library in Lexington has a display of quotes written or spoken by African American men and women. While the words in these quotes come from different periods in U.S. history, they all reflect these common themes: justice, dignity, and awareness.

In addition to the library’s display, the librarians plan to post quotes from African Americans on our blog each school day.

We invite you to the library to see the display.
