Blair Daniel, a Delaware State University junior said, she ” loves the fact her historically black university is bringing history to them.” Other students are also excited about being apart of this moment. Cara Bentley, a sophomore at the university said, “not everyone gets a chance to actively participate in making history.”

It is Black History month on the HBCU campus of Delaware State University, and there are plenty of events organized to celebrate black rich history. Delaware State University is making sure students are familiar with more than the average Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King and Harriet Tubman lessons that have been a part of the curriculum since kindergarten.
