Celebrating Black History Month

Introduction

The Department of Medicine Inclusion Council Celebrates Black History Month.  We join the country in celebrating the achievements by African Americans and the central role of African Americans in U.S. history.  In honoring African American culture and accomplishments, we celebrate the achievements of black physicians as trailblazers, history makers and barrier breakers.
