February is Black History Month, a wonderful time to learn more and celebrate the achievements of African-Americans and BIPOC around the world. Gal’s Guide Library is intentional in its displays, podcast, and spotlights to showcase Black women every month, but we love that there’s a nationwide movement in February and join the celebration wholeheartedly.
