African-American Calendar of Racial Injustices on Sale
Expand your knowledge and understanding of African American history with this beautiful large wall calendar. This is not your ordinary run of the mill calendar, but rather the months of the calendar cites various incidents of racial injustices toward African Americans.
It is a must for anyone who wish to know of these events. It is also a wonderful teaching tool so that all who views it will know of these things and hopefully will never forget; moreover, you will not want to throw this calendar away at the end of the year.
