Starting this week, New Mexico State University will commemorate Black History Month with a series of free virtual events sponsored by the NMSU Black Student Association, NMSU Black Programs and the NMSU Library.
The events kick off Wednesday, Feb. 3, and continue through Feb. 26. They are open to all NMSU students, staff, faculty and community members, and will take place on Zoom.
“There is no doubt that 2020 was a tumultuous year, but time and time again, we have proven that as a community, we are undeniably resilient. Considering the number of valuable pillars and icons we have lost due to the pandemic, this year’s Black History Month celebration is even more meaningful,” said Kimberly York, interim director of NMSU Black Programs. “It is a time of introspection about what is really important in life and the value of life.”
