NORRISTOWN â The pandemic has ensured that the Montgomery County Health and Human Services approach to Black History Month would be decidedly different for 2021.
Instead of the customary day of speakers and honorees, the agency is presenting weekly virtual forums on the theme âThe Black Family,â through moderated interactive discussions with notable county authorities.

While growing up in a tiny South Jersey town, Keywuan Caulk was fully aware of his sexual orientation at the age of 12 but buried those thoughts way down.
Caulk was a devout member of a Black Pentecostal church and his church life meant everything to him, so he stayed quiet and hid his sexual identity until he was 26.
