That being their mission, Black History Month is an opportune time to further their message and promote their organization on campus. Our efforts are aimed at informing Millsaps and the surrounding community about the importance of recognizing black achievement.
Black history is everyone's history.
Students explain that these special events are part of a growing historical consciousness of African-American history. Black history should be celebrated every day. After all, the history of African Americans is very much a part of the spirit, soul and story of our nation. Millsaps College is a privately supported college founded in 1890 and is affiliated with the United Methodist Church.
