February is Black History Month

Learning and preserving our history is an important part of the mission of the Independence Square Association. We invite you to order a t-shirt to help highlight a few of the many black community members who had a lasting impact on our city, state, and country. A QR code on the shirt will take you to a map that gives more details about their lives and their contributions to our collective history.

All proceeds will be donated to the Black Student Unions of the ISD High Schools.

T-shirt orders will be taken through the end of the month and then printed. You will be notified when your shirt is available for pick-up or shipping.
