Arkansas Governor's Mansion Commission issued the following announcement on Feb. 19.
In this week’s radio address, I celebrate Black History Month and recognize some of the remarkable Arkansans we recognize during February.
February is Black History Month, and today I’d like to pay tribute to some of the Arkansans who have made a real difference in our state and nation.
More than 160 Arkansans have been inducted into the Arkansas Black Hall of Fame. Many of those are historic figures who contributed to the early growth and governance of Arkansas. Many others are still making news. They have represented Arkansas in the fields of journalism, publishing, and entertainment; law; politics; agriculture; restaurants; nuclear science; computer science; the military; and college and professional sports.
