2026 Black History Month

Tuesday, February 3, 2026

The Eddie Mae Herron Center is working to bring NBA legend Sidney Moncrief to Pocahontas for a full day of Black History Month programming serving students, families, and the broader community. An Arkansas native and Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame inductee, Moncrief’s message centers on leadership, discipline, and building strong foundations in sports, education, and life.
