2. Educate yourself. 

To celebrate this important month, take some time to learn how women’s history and the issues that affect Black women to this day.

Black women can’t do all the advocating themselves. 

4. Show your gratitude. 

A straightforward way to celebrate Women’s History Month is by treating the Black women in your life to something special. If you’re grateful for them, show them—don’t just say it. 

5. Read a book written by a Black woman. 

Branch out of your usual author picks and grab a book by a Black female author! 

6. Listen carefully. 

Probably the best gift you could give to Black women is a listening ear. They often go ignored and unheard in society, but it doesn’t have to be that way. Hear them when they speak and listen deeply! 

7. Let them know you’ve got their back.
Protect Black women is the motto every day. To show your love to the Black women in your life, communicate that you’re here for them. Maybe you don’t see this enough or at all, and this month is the perfect time to start.
