Black Feminist Fortnight

Welcome to Black Feminist Fortnight 2026

A Celebration of Black Women and an Intersectional Approach to Black History Month and Women’s History Month

February 22 – March 7, 2026

Every year, we celebrate Black History Month in February and Women’s History Month in March, and every year, the lives and accomplishments and struggles of black women often get lost in the shuffle. By applying an intersectional lens to the calendar, we’ll be celebrating the last week of Black History Month and the first week of Women’s History Month as the Black Feminist Fortnight – an opportunity to highlight and celebrate the accomplishments of Black women.

Look for posters in the buildings around campus, going up late February and staying up through March!
