During Black History month and every month I will strive to learn more, share my knowledge and create Black History so that it can never be forgotten, overlooked or erased.”

We asked First Tee-GWDC participants “What does Black History Month mean to you?” Throughout the month, we’re featuring participant reflections and today we hear from Kingston:

and the first black pharmacist to open a pharmacy in his neighborhood. I will always celebrate his legacy and share his accomplishments.

Over the years, Black History has been challenged, altered and even removed.
