Issued: Feb 1, 1984. 20¢ Carter G. Woodson, Never Hinged.
The “Father of Black History,” Carter G. Woodson realized the importance of the public having the knowledge of the black people’s contributions to humanity. To accomplish this goal, he created the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History as a means of spreading the awareness of black history and culture. In 1926, he started the observance of “Negro History Week,” which has since grown into “Black History Month.” (APS)
