Michigan's Rich African American Past
For years, February has been recognized as Black History Month. In nearly 250 years of living in Michigan, African Americans have made many important-and often overlooked--contributions to our state's past. Article includes information on the Underground Railroad and notable figure such as Sojourner Truth, Ralph Bunche, Berry Gordy Jr., actor James Earl Jones, John Conyers Jr., Rosa Parks.

February Michigan Event Calendar
Our Michigan February Event Calendar shows that the more the weather tries to keep us holed up inside, the more ways we find to get out and have fun!! Of course, there's still many, many more and we invite you to fill us in on other February events in the comments section.
