Celebrate Black History Month with the City of Clinton: Share Your Family’s Legacy

January 23, 2024

The City of Clinton is gearing up for a meaningful celebration of Black History Month this February, and they want you to be a part of it! As the city prepares to honor the rich heritage and contributions of African Americans, they are reaching out to the community to share personal stories of African American history makers within families.

“Do you have an African American history maker in your family whose story deserves recognition? The City of Clinton invites you to participate by sending a photo along with the compelling narrative of your history maker’s journey. This is a fantastic opportunity to highlight the achievements, resilience, and impact of individuals in your family,” says Lacresha Dowdy, who is spearheading this initiative.

To get involved and have your family’s history maker celebrated during Black History Month, reach out to Lacresha Dowdy at [email protected] for more information. This initiative not only pays tribute to the past but also serves as a reminder of the diversity and strength that enriches the community.

Share your family’s legacy and contribute to the collective celebration of Black History Month in the City of Clinton. Let these stories inspire, educate, and foster a deeper appreciation for the diverse tapestry of history that makes the Clinton community unique.
