In celebration of Black History Month, Cal State San Bernardino will hold virtual events throughout the month of February to honor the culture, accomplishments, contributions and legacy of African Americans.

The virtual events are in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, which forced CSUSB to stop face-to-face classroom instruction and events on campus last March and move to virtual and online classes and events.

To launch the celebration, on Feb. 5 from noon to 1 p.m., CSUSB will hold the “Black History Month 2021: The Legacy, Our Existence, My Identity Opening Ceremony,” featuring university President Tomás D. Morales and CSUSB alumna, educator and author Margaret Hill ’80. Register at https://tinyurl.com/csusbbhm2021.

CSUSB will also participate in the California State University’s Super Sunday, where leaders from the CSU and its 23 campuses visit African American churches throughout California to talk about the importance of higher education and preparing for college. This year, because of the pandemic and travel restrictions, the Super Sunday visits will be held virtually on Feb. 28.

In addition, on Feb. 26, from 10-11 a.m., this year’s Pioneer Breakfast will instead be the Pioneer Scholarship Celebration, a virtual celebration highlighted by a Student Showcase Competition, scholarship presentations, and a featured student speaker. Registration will be updated shortly on the BHM website.
