Husband and wife duo, Mark and Charmaine founders of Black History Studies to receive C. Hub Magazine ICON recognition at this year’s CA Awards for their leadership and contributions in preserving the African and Black history and identity.

The duo launched Black History Studies in 2007 as they discovered that people wanted to learn about their history from an African perspective but there were no real outlet offering a range of learning opportunities.

They said, “we believe that Black History and Black Studies should be studied throughout the year and not just during Black History Month held in October in the UK or February in the United States and the Caribbean. El-Hajj Malik El-Shabazz (Malcolm X) said that “Education is your passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to the people who prepare for it today”‘. Black History Studies supports this view and encourages people to learn about Black History and Culture and use it to develop their lives and others.
