Answer:

First, there was Negro History Week, in response to the lack of information on the accomplishments of Black people available to the public. "the second week of February" This week was chosen because it includes the birthdays of both Frederick Douglass and former U.S. president Abraham Lincoln. The week-long event officially became Black History Month in 1976 when U.S. president Gerald Ford extended the recognition to “honor often neglected accomplishments of Black Americans."
