Proclamation 10890 of January 31, 2025

National Black History Month, 2025

By the President of the United States of America

A Proclamation

Today, I am very honored to recognize February 2025 as
National Black History Month.

Every year, National Black History Month is an occasion
to celebrate the contributions of so many black
American patriots who have indelibly shaped our
Nation's history.

Throughout our history, black Americans have been among
our country's most consequential leaders, shaping the
cultural and political destiny of our Nation in
profound ways. American heroes such as Frederick
Douglass, Harriet Tubman, Thomas Sowell, Justice
Clarence Thomas, and countless others represent what is
best in America and her citizens. Their achievements,
which have monumentally advanced the tradition of
equality under the law in our great country, continue
to serve as an inspiration for all Americans. We will
also never forget the achievements of American greats
like Tiger Woods, who have pushed the boundaries of
excellence in their respective fields, paving the way
for others to follow.

This National Black History Month, as America prepares
to enter a historic Golden Age, I want to extend my
tremendous gratitude to black Americans for all they
have done to bring us to this moment, and for the many
future contributions they will make as we advance into
a future of limitless possibility under my
Administration.

NOW, THEREFORE, I, DONALD J. TRUMP, President of the
United States of America, by virtue of the authority
vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the
United States, do hereby proclaim February 2025 as
National Black History Month. I call upon public
officials, educators, librarians, and all the people of
the United States to observe this month with
appropriate programs, ceremonies, and activities.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this
thirty-first day of January, in the year of our Lord
two thousand twenty-five, and of the Independence of
the United States of America the two hundred and forty-
ninth.
