Black History Month may be over but Black History never is.
In recognition of Black History Month, 35 fourth- and fifth-graders from Canterbury Elementary school chose quotes from several famous black Americans and then recited these quotes for a video while "in character."
Some of those quoted include:
- Ben Carson, a famous neurosurgeon at John Hopkins Hospital
- Faith Ringgold, an artist best known for her story quilts
- comedian Bill Cosby
- jazz artists Charlie Parker and Ella Fitzgerald
- basketball player and businessman Michael Jordan.
