In 2026 we celebrate the 100th Anniversary of
Dr. Carter G. Woodson’s founding of Negro
History Week and his call to honor
Black educators and education as a source
of liberation.
It also marks 20 years since Philadelphia
became the first city in the nation to require
Black history for high school graduation,
significantly bolstering the teaching and
learning of Black history.
In partnership with Blackprint 20 and
supporters like you, the Center for Black Educator
Development seeks to honor our past, present
and future by turning remembrance into real
action and inspiring new generations of
educator as they write the next
chapter of our Black history.
Help us fuel the next generation of Black educators and create a just education system by rebuilding the Black teacher pipeline through the Center’s Teaching Pathways.
