Christopher D. Johnson will explain about Black History Month: Black Deaf History Month represents a living testimony of the year-long awareness of Black Deaf and African Americans’ contribution to the United States of America. 

To promote racial equity in our K-12 educational curriculum, we encourage you to use the 13 Guiding Principles of Black (Deaf) Lives Matter in your teaching materials:
◾ Restorative Justice.
◾ Empathy.
◾ Loving Engagement.
◾ Diversity.
◾ Globalism.
◾ Queer Affirming.
◾ Trans Affirming.
◾ Collective Value.
◾ Intergenerational.
◾ Black Families.
◾ Black Villages.
◾ Black Women.
◾ Unapologetic Black.
