Women of Color Advancing Peace and Security (WCAPS) is pleased to recognize Black History Month during February. This year, WCAPS will be honoring the pillars of African American history and the Black women who have broken barriers in the field of international peace, diplomacy, and foreign affairs. As we continue to bridge the diversity gap amongst black women, we are delighted to reflect on our nation's progress to include their expertise in foreign affairs in the field of peace and security.
