February is Black History Month!  Join Diversity Club this month by celebrating the life of Black Historical Figures that have impacted our world!  Congress is more diverse now than it's ever been.  However, when Shirley Chisholm was attempting to shatter the glass ceiling, the same couldn't be said.  During the racially contentious period in the late '60s, she became the first Black woman elected to Congress.  She represented New York's 12th District from 1969 to 1983, and in 1972, she became the first woman to run for the Democratic Party’s presidential nomination.  Her campaign slogan, "Unbought and Unbossed" rings even louder today.  Senator Kamala Harris recently paid tribute to Chisholm in her presidential campaign announcement by using a similar logo to Chisholm's.

We will conclude with a quote by Shirley Chisholm, “If they don’t give you a seat at the table, bring a folding chair”.

On behalf of Diversity Club, Happy Black History Month.
