Rooted in Dr. Carter G. Woodson’s legacy of preserving Black history, this month honors the voices that shaped—and continue to shape—our world.

Usisahau.org carries that mission forward by creating a digital space to share, heal, and connect through community storytelling. Its name means “lest we forget,” and it empowers people across the African diaspora to preserve their lived experiences in their own words. 

Our stories are our power. Our memory is our legacy.
