EXPLAIN IN FRENCH  

How did the author of the article used to celebrate Black History month at school?
L’auteur de l’article se rappelle qu’à l’école le Black History Month se célébrait avec des projets comme mémoriser le discours “I Have a Dream” de Martin Luther King, des dissertations sur les progrès faits depuis l’esclavage en Amérique ou bien des collages avec des personnalités importantes de l’Histoire Afro-Américaine.

According to the author of the article, why is Beyoncé’s collage “different”?
Même si ce collage comporte les grandes figures de l’histoire Afro-Américaine, celui de Beyoncé est différent parce qu’elle y inclut des membres de sa famille, des personnalités Afro-Américaines plus récentes ou encore des personnalités qui ne sont pas réellement des activistes au sens traditionnel du terme mais qui contribuent tous à promouvoir la communauté Afro-Américaine. 
En résumé, Beyoncé ne s’intéresse pas qu’au passé mais aussi aux personnes qui travaille en ce moment-même pour le futur de leur communauté.
