In the United States, it is also known as African-American History Month. It is an
annual celebration of the achievements and contribution by African-Americans to society, and their role in the history of The United States.
It has been celebrated since February, 1970. Black History Month officially expanded to Canada in 1995 when a motion was introduced by the first Black Canadian

In Australia, 'Blak History Month' (it is not a typo, it is 'Blak') has been celebrated in July since 2008, to honour and remember the history of Australia's Aboriginals and Torres Strait Islanders.
