black history month

Alabama State University- A Center of African American History and Culture

Montgomery Interpretive Center | 11 a.m. | Free

During ASU’s observance of Black History Month for the year 2026, the National Center will present a program examining ASU as prominent in the evolving Black History Movement of the 1920s to the 1960s. During this period, the institution established African American and African-American-related courses as part of the school’s curriculum. Also during this era, ASU sponsored events on campus and in the local and wider state African-American community related to African-American history and culture. Additionally, during this period, ASU’s student and other newspaper publications printed editorials and regular newspaper columns highlighting significant African American events, issues and persons important to ASU’s faculty and student population.
