Black History Month means celebrating the leaders, trailblazers, and role models in the Black community of the past and present. It’s a time to remind ourselves of the groundbreaking contributions Black individuals have made in science and all fields. I also believe it is a time to reflect on the medical and ethical atrocities in the treatment of and experimentation on Black communities to ensure that we will do and be better now.
