Pillars of Progress

Every Black History Month, The Miami Times proudly presents “Our History Makers,” an annual special section dedicated to celebrating local heroes who embody the spirit of change and community upliftment. These remarkable individuals carry forward the enduring legacy of Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and other influential Black History Makers by actively improving lives, addressing injustices, and inspiring hope within our community.

Our History Makers are innovators and visionaries whose impactful contributions often occur without widespread recognition or extensive resources. Their dedication to making a tangible difference highlights their genuine commitment to service and leadership. We firmly believe that true examples of history-making excellence live, work, and thrive in our own neighborhoods.

Join us in honoring this exceptional generation of local leaders who, with youthful determination and seasoned wisdom, continue to inspire, lead, and transform our community for the better.
