February 24, 2021
Which sports legend is responsible for once saying,
“Hank Aaron is the only man I idolize more than myself”?
What holiday did professor Dr. Maulana Karenga create?
Who became the first black woman millionaire and
invented hair care products for black women?
These questions represent but a few of the many thousands of historical and modern-day facts that middle school students study as part of the annual Black History Bowl — an academic quiz-bowl competition run by the Kennesaw Teen Center. Middle school students who participate with the Mount Paran Christian School Black History Bowl team dedicate their time to learning facts such as these.
