Colorado just made it clear: Black history is not seasonal. 📚✊🏾
A new law will require all public schools in the state to teach Black history year-round by 2028 — from kindergarten through 12th grade. No more limiting the fullness of our story to just February.
House Bill 25-1149 mandates a comprehensive Black history and cultural studies curriculum integrated throughout the entire school year. As Denver Public Schools’ Director of Black Student Success, Michael Atkins, put it: “We know our story is not just confined to just 28 days.”
This is about 365 days of truth.
365 days of context.
365 days of culture, contribution, and clarity.
Representation in curriculum shapes identity, confidence, and understanding — not just for Black students, but for everyone.
Thoughts? Should more states follow?
