Initiative
The national theme for Black History Month is “Black Health and Wellness.” In celebration of Black History Month, the National Museum of African American History & Culture (NMAAHC) will examine the legacy of not only Black scholars and medical practitioners in Western medicine, but also other ways of knowing (e.g., birth workers, doulas, midwives, naturopaths, herbalists, etc.) throughout the African Diaspora. The 2022 theme considers activities, rituals and initiatives that Black communities have done to be well.
