BlackFamChallenge

About This Project

Every year, the Association for the Study of African American Life and History (ASALH) sets an annual theme for Black History Month. The ASALH theme is "The Black Family: Representation, Identity, and Diversity." Family is especially important now, during a worldwide pandemic. The African-American Research Library (AARLCC) is challenging you to create a short (60 seconds or less) video demonstrating what "family" means to you! It could be dancing, singing, pranking each other or just looking good for the camera! 

Submit your most creative video to Biblioboard. The contest is open to all middle school and high school students in Broward County and the video with the most votes and runner-up will receive a Visa gift card.  For further questions, you can contact the Youth Services department at the African-American Research Library & Cultural Center at (954) 357-6209.  Good luck and thank you for participating.
