Black History Month

Profile America -- Wednesday, February 1st. This is Black History Month, a time to recall and honor the many positive contributions to our nation made by people of African descent. Started as a special week 86 years ago by historian Carter G. Woodson, the observance is now a full month of activities across the country. African-Americans number 42 million in the U.S., 13.6 percent of the total population. By 2050, this proportion is estimated to reach 15 percent. Although New York has the largest number of blacks of any state, Mississippi has the largest share of this group in its total population -- 38 percent. African-Americans are the largest minority group in 23 of the 50 states.
