In 1920. the Achievement Week project was inaugurated at the ninth Grand Conclave held in Nashville, Tennessee. The introduction of this project was inspired by the speech orated by Brother Dr. Carter G. Woodson at the Conclave. This period would then be designated by Brother Woodson as the “Negro History and Literature Week.”

The Achievement Week project commenced until the Thirteenth Conclave, held in Washington, DC in 1924. During this period, it was voted to halt the program until the next Grand Conclave in 1925. The cause of the program to become suspended was due to the remarkable growth and amplification of the Fraternity across the country. For this reason, it was thought to utilize this time to consolidate and nationalize the Fraternity.

In the year 1925, Dr. Woodson evolved the name of the project from Negro History and Literature week to Negro History Week. Also, he shifted the celebratory month from April to February. These changes brought about what we know today as Black History Month. At the Fourteenth Annual Conclave held at the Tuskegee Institute in 1925, the Fraternity resumed the project as the “Negro Achievement Week Project.” The project was arranged to allow the opportunity to present important current achievements of Black people, more specifically, those who may never reach it to the printed pages of history.
