Departments across Emory will host numerous virtual activities during February in recognition of Black History Month, including panel discussions, a film screening and conversations with artists and authors. Our theme for Black History Month this year is legacy and responsibility as we reflect on the loss of so many luminaries in 2020, says Carol E. Henderson, Emory’s chief diversity officer, vice provost for diversity and inclusion, and adviser to the president.
