The program will be live on February 21, 2026, at the Rainbow Park Baptist Church, 2941 Columbia Drive, 30034. It starts at 10:00 a.m. This year marks the 100th anniversary Black History Month recognizing and commemorating the work of Carter G. Woodson, known as the founder of Black History Month. The keynote speaker for the event is Dr. Daniel Black. He is a nationally renowned, award-winning novelist, professor of African Studies at Clark-Atlanta University, and frequent contributor to the Karen Hunter Show on XM-Sirius Radio. Dr. Black has written seven novels, and his first essay collection titled BLACK ON BLACK, was released on January 30, 2023. Dr. Black also won the 2024 “Georgia Author of the Year Award” for Black on Black. Dr. Black will speak on the topic: Using our black history as a reason to propel our young people past the current climate in America (Jim Crow 2.0). Dee Smith, chair of the Black History Committee, said, “Our history is so rich and deep. It amazes me and even makes me angry at times for what they did not teach us in school. I know the teachers may not have known this information either, so we were left to learn our history through the lens of other people.” Dr. Black will continue the efforts of Dr. Woodson by sharing to make our history palatable to our young leaders of the next generation.”
