Illustration with a pink background and colorful bold script that reads: “Happy Black History Month.” At the top is the Black In Neuro logo featuring a stylized profile of a Black person with “Black In Neuro” written in their hair and a brain illustration. The design uses rich, warm colors and a soft gradient for a celebratory and uplifting feel.
