MOSIJAH ROYE: Black History Month

Black History Month to Antonio means celebrating his lineage

and honoring those who have walked the path 

that many of us are walking through our lives today.

Black History Month for Rell is community, he says 

it’s sad that we allow our culture to be celebrated for only a month 

when in reality it should be celebrated everyday.

Black History Month to me is a celebration of 

all the black people who died for us and to give up their lives for us 

to be where we are today. People like Martin Luther King , and Nelson Mandela.

Photographer and student Mosijah Roye asks, "What is Black History Month to you? For the month of February I would like to post one black person every day detailing what this month, our month means to us. Every weekday I will post a person and write a short caption about what this month means to them"
