The National Abolition Hall of Fame and Museum (NAHOF) Black History Matters program series begins Monday, February 1. The daily brief “crash courses” in American history for the month of February begin with a welcome and an overview with Victoria Basulto, the manager of the programming, on Monday, February 1. Basulto, a Colgate University Senior and a Colgate Upstate Institute intern working with NAHOF, will describe the purpose of Black History Matters and explain how people can (virtually) attend the free presentations. These programs will address key events in our national history and are topics in history that are lesser known or whose implications are not usually understood. Introduction to BLACK HISTORY MATTERS
