February is Black History Month, a celebration of the accomplishments made by members of the

African-American community. I have compiled a list of the 25 most-searched African Americans and you will

create an infographic of these men and women.

For this assignment you will create an infographic of the person that is displayed over your monitor. If

you are confused the number on your monitor corresponds to the picture that will be showed on your google

classroom. You cannot switch people. The people that you have are the people that you will create an

infographic for. Let’s get started with developing our research. Before you begin your infographic I need to see

that you have done your research. You cannot move on till I have checked that you have completed the research

for your person. Once you have completed the research I will let you continue to create your infographic. Le’s

go over what needs to be on your infographic.
