The resolution celebrates Black History Month in February 2025, acknowledging the significant yet often overlooked contributions of African Americans to various aspects of American society, including social growth, the economy, military, sciences, and arts. It highlights the historical context of Black History Month, which evolved from "Negro History Week" established in 1926, and emphasizes the legacy of Dr. Carter G. Woodson. The resolution also notes the struggles and achievements of African Americans, particularly in the context of military integration and the recognition of their contributions, both well-known figures like Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and lesser-known individuals who have made impactful contributions.

Additionally, the resolution honors notable African Americans with ties to Arkansas, such as Dorothy McFadden Hoover, Maya Angelou, Revoyda Frierson, John H. Johnson, and Raye Montague, each of whom made significant strides in their respective fields. The Senate of the Ninety-Fifth General Assembly of the State of Arkansas resolves to celebrate Black History Month and recognize the sacrifices and contributions of African Americans throughout the state's and nation's history.
