Muhammad Ali, Josephine Baker, Reginald F. Lewis and several other Black heroes came to life through the eyes of 3rd-5th grade PUSD students at the Black History Living Museum hosted last week by the PUSD African American Parent Council (AAPC). The BHLM Project is a celebration of black excellence, where PUSD students create a display about a Black person of cultural or historical significance and share how that person inspires them. Congratulations to all the students for their excellent presentations!
