Black History Month 2021

The CEMS Civil Rights Team is taking the opportunity in February and March to shine a spotlight on Black history, and to celebrate how our world has been shaped by the contributions of Black people in the United States and everywhere.

The Team has co-created an Exhibit in the CEMS Gym Lobby that features over 25 socially-distanced focal points.  In addition to the Civil Rights Team members, contributors include:

  • Ms. Kaufman's 7th Grade Experiential Learning Team
  • 5th and 8th Grade American History Classes
  • Ms. DeWan, CEHS Art Teacher
  • The Undefeated 44

Classes are invited to tour the exhibit throughout the month of March as the Team embraces Morgan Freeman's reminder: "I don't want a Black History Month. Black History is American History."
