Douglass


February is Black History Month and we encourage our readers to go to the Web sites of the various IU campuses for specific events to commemorate the observance, which dates back nationally to 1926. February was chosen by organizers because of the birthdays of Abraham Lincoln and Frederick Douglass. Variously designated Negro History, Black History, Afro American History, Black Heritage and Black Expressions, the observance period was initially a week, but since 1976 has held a month on the calendar. We take you today to the on-line exhibit marking the publication of The African-American Mosaic: A Library of Congress Resource Guide for the Study of Black History and Culture. The resource covers nearly 500 years of the black experience in the Western hemisphere and represents the start of a new kind of access to the Library of Congress' African American collections. You'll find books, periodicals, prints, photographs, music, film and recorded sound
