<Title>February is Black History Month!</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <div><em>“If a race has no history, it has no worthwhile tradition, it becomes a negligible factor in the thought of the world, and it stands in danger of being exterminated.” </em></div>
    <blockquote><blockquote><blockquote><blockquote><blockquote><blockquote><blockquote><blockquote><div>- Carter G. Woodson</div></blockquote></blockquote></blockquote></blockquote></blockquote></blockquote></blockquote></blockquote>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>These words provide justification and reasoning for the acknowledgement of Black people, icons, achievements, and culture that we observe during Black History Month. This month-long event evolved from Negro History Week, launched in 1962, to celebrate the emancipation and achievements of Black-identified people in the United States. Since then, it has become a cultural phenomenon that allows institutions to focus on an accurate and proper telling of African American history. This acknowledgement of Black history goes beyond slavery by recognising the luxuries, achievements and discoveries that Black people have gifted to the United States and the world at large. This annual tradition provides other races and ethnicities the opportunity to learn about the diverse and eclectic nature of the Black experience by introducing them to ideas, rhetoric, and notable figures that have helped shape Black identity and America as a whole.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>The fact that February is designated as Black History month does not stop us from celebrating Black history throughout the year, but we have committed to spending this month to placing a spotlight on the accomplishments and stories of Black people. In years prior, Black History Month inspired schools and communities nationwide to organize local celebrations as well as dramatically expand the consciousness of African Americans about the importance of Black history. It continues to do so even now as everyday Black people exist and are thriving, Black history is being made and celebrated somewhere in the world. Isn’t that just grand?</div>

<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content"><span>Erin
    McGonigle, a 2008 UMBC graduate, began her career in the Bookstore in 2010 as
    the Head Cashier. In 2014, she was promoted to Marketing Manager. Several
    publications featured her work in this role, including "The College Store
    Magazine", "MBS Foreword Online" and "University Business
    Magazine". She also had a notable tweet, “It’s ok, we sell Wite-Out,” during
    the historic 2018 Men’s Basketball win.  In 2016, she moved into a new
    position as Course Materials Initiative (CMI) and Marketing Manager. Since
    then, she has hosted webinars and joined a panel discussion at the annual
    EDUCAUSE Conference in 2018 to discuss UMBC’s innovative Inclusive Access
    program, CMI. We would like to welcome her into her new role as Bookstore Director. <br></span></div>
