Black History Month

"Dear compatriots and friends, I make it my duty to remind everyone that the month of February is known throughout the world as 'Black History Month'.

The 'Black History Month' is the shortest of the year. We will pay tribute to our National Heroes in February and throughout the year.

It is therefore up to us to be proud of it and to train children proud of our identity" former Consul General of Haiti in Chicago Lesly Condé.
