Free Black History Month Coloring Pages
For this series, we illustrated many influential change makers such as the first black president and other African American politicians, the first black woman to go into space, the first black baseball player to play in the major leagues, and black women’s rights and civil rights activists. While we designed many of these historical figures to color in for kids of all ages, we’ve also included detailed drawings for teens and adults, too. Print some to teach students about the impact of important figures in the black community.
