Friday, March 1, will mark the beginning of Virgin Islands History Month. Act 6802, passed in 2006, created the month-long recognition of Virgin Islands history and history makers.
“Each March, we have the opportunity to revisit our important and interesting local history,” Gittens said. “I urge parents, teachers and our many culture bearers to take this opportunity to teach our children more about the Virgin Islands. Our historic records include many role models and important events and that, once shared, help instill a real sense of pride in our youth.”

On July 2, 1848, the enslaved inhabitants of the Danish West Indies liberated themselves from the brutality of the Danish system of slavery. The enslaved people gave Governor Peter von Scholten a 4 p.m. deadline to liberate them. After seeing more than 8,000 enslaved people gathered and silently awaiting his decision, he knew any refusal or delay would mean destruction of the towns and plantations and many would be killed. He had no choice and declared, "Alle unfrie paa de Danske Vestindiske oer ere fra dags dato frigivne." "All unfree in the Danish West Indies are from today free." This resulted in the Emancipation Proclamation issued by then Governor Peter Von Scholten on July 3, 1848.

“Virgin Islanders, a quiet and humble people should not be allowed to rule themselves for one hundred years and when so, should be done under white rule for there are militants among them." Naval Governor Sumner Ely Wetmore Kittelle of the newly created Virgin Islands of the United States in 1922.
Virgin Islanders have not thoroughly exercised their rights as stipulated by the “Treaties & Resolutions” to accomplishing Self-Determination/Decolonization. A group of “grass roots” Virgin Islanders have come together and created "A People's Historical Journey To Self-Determination & Decolonization” to go beyond the Centennial activities of 2017. This journey will explore the historical events that had significant impact on Self-Determination of the Virgin Islands prior to and after the transfer. Our goal is to bring an end to the 100 years of white government rule of the People of the Virgin Islands through and by the establishment of a Political Status and Constitution of the Virgin Islands by 2021.

"In early 1917, Germany sent Mexico a coded message promising portions of U.S. land in return for Mexico joining World War I against the United States. The message was intercepted by Britain, translated, and shown to the United States. This brought the war to U.S. soil, giving the U.S. a real reason to enter the war on the side of the Allies."
