In celebration of Black History Month, the African-American Heritage Association hosted a heritage walk/run carrying the U.S. flag and candles—symbolic for African-Americans. During slavery, candles were used to light the way for slaves to identify safe passage. (U.S. Air Force photo by Chustine Minoda)
