About the Calendar

Pairing essays with historical images, this calendar tells twelve stories of black people working for change—most in the United States, but also in South Africa and Jamaica. Featured subjects are Daisy Bates and the Little Rock Nine; black American nurses of World War II; civil rights activist James L. Farmer Sr.; folklorist and novelist Zora Neale Hurston; boxers Jack Johnson and Tut Jackson; Nelson Mandela, first president of South Africa elected after apartheid; writer and poet Claude McKay; cowboy and rodeo performer Bill Pickett; civil rights and labor leader A. Philip Randolph; singer and actor Paul Robeson; the Tuskegee Airmen; and pianist and composer Mary Lou Williams. Anniversaries of important events in black history are noted throughout.
