Baruch Celebrates Black History Month

The theme for Black History Month 2025 is: “Black Futures: Shaping Tomorrow Through Labor and Legacy”. It is meant to highlight the historical contributions and future-oriented innovations of Black thinkers, creators, and workers. The programming will focus on the various and profound ways that work and working of all kinds – free and unfree, skilled, and unskilled, vocational and voluntary – intersect with the collective experiences of Black people.
