Those who don't know

history are destined to repeat it - said Edmund Burke

Carter G. Woodson began Negro History Week in 1926. He wrote 'Observances of Negro History Week,' which appeared in the volume 11, number 2 issue of the 'Journal of Negro History.'

Where could I find that article?

A Google search led me to HighBeam.com which has the article but requires my registering for a free trial (and then charging me a monthly fee).

You know I'm sending you to GALILEO - where our Georgia tax dollars are at work (get the password for home use from your Georgia librarian). There you'll find the History Reference Center an Ebsco product.
