Black History Month

By: Ashley lyske

Black History is an important part of our history that we must

Learn about, and

Acknowledge.

Carter G. Woodson started Black History in 1996

King (Martin Luther) was a well-known leader of nonviolent resistance to equal rights for all.

Hariet Tubman escaped slavery and played an important role in helping others through the underground railway

I have a dream was a famous and powerful speech by Martin Luther King.

Stop violence against all people

Treat

Others

Respectfully, kindly and how you would like to be treated

You are the change

Our Differences

By: Arielle

We are a community of varieties
But some were treated unfairly
People were tortured and blamed in our society
We couldn’t speak for ourselves clearly

Some were sold as slaves and maids
As a result, our numbers decreased
They were bruised and used in the trades
Wanting to be released

Racial Injustice/Inequality

By: Andrea

Slavery started in 1619
Back then people were controlled
Now this has changed, they are finally seen
And history has been told

We all have our differences
And that’s what makes us unique
We should stop ignorance
We have a voice, we’re not weak

Modern Day Slavery

Slavery began in 1619

It’s not completely over

It’s just a different scene*

Since 1834

Many have fought for equality and peace

But modern slavery exists today

The rates continue to increase

Slavery is wrong

Speak up

Protect the vulnerable

Defend our rights

Which should be shared by all of humanity

Facts:

* Fifty million people were living in modern slavery in 2021, according to the latest Global Estimates of Modern Slavery. Of these people, 28 million were in forced labour and 22 million were trapped in forced marriage. Women and children are the most vulnerable and in the past 5 years rates of modern day slavery around the world have risen (International Labour Organization, 2022).

Questions For Further Thought:

How as a society can we put an end to slavery once and for all? How can we create a society where people’s rights are protected and respected?
