Today is the first day of Black History Month 2024. This month represents an amplified opportunity for all people to honor, celebrate and reflect upon the achievements, struggles, accomplishments, experiences and lives of Black Americans, past and present. Today, as we work towards a society that is more just, equitable, and historically aware, I encourage each of us to give thanks for and uplift the Black Americans who we have learned from, worked with, been mentored by, been supported by, done business with, partnered with, and loved. We are also challenged to redouble our efforts to have the history, story and achievements of Black Americans treated as the essential American history that it is… core to who we have been, an essential part of who we are today, and an essential element of who we shall be in the future as Americans. #BlackHistoryIsAmericanHistory #BlackLivesMatter #CelebrateBlackExcellence

This February, we're celebrating Black History Month. It's a special time to recognize the profound impact Black Americans have on our society, culture, and history. In 1926, Dr. Carter G. Woodson first instituted "Negro History Week," aligning it with the birthdays of Abraham Lincoln and Frederick Douglass. Its purpose was to raise awareness of the often-overlooked achievements Black Americans have made from mainstream historical narratives. initiative aimed to encourage the coordinated teaching of the history of American Blacks in the nation's public schools, a radical idea at the time that sought to challenge the underrepresentation of Black Americans in the country's history. In 1976, President Gerald Ford officially recognized Black History Month urging Americans to "seize the opportunity to honor the too-often neglected accomplishments of Black Americans in every area of endeavor throughout our history.” Since then, Black History Month has been a time for all Americans to celebrate the achievements, contributions, and history of African Americans.

February is Black History Month, a special time for honoring and celebrating the many achievements of Black Americans while acknowledging the challenges they face both past and present. Black investors in the U.S. hold more than $6 trillion of wealth, yet many are under-invested. Advisors can play a critical role in helping close that gap and reinforcing the continued growth of Black wealth and prosperity. BlackRock’s resources are designed to help advisors build authentic relationships with Black investors and earn their trust -> https://1blk.co/4bNStxl #BlackHistoryMonth #wealthmanagement #professionaldevelopment #financialadvisors
