SHREVEPORT, La. – February is Black History Month and KTBS 3/KPXJ CW 21 continue to salute the contributions of African Americans in labor with the help of Bossier Parish high school students.

Arturo Schomburg collected and preserved black history worldwide, proving the global impact of people of African descent. His work became the foundation of the Schomburg Center in New York City.
