Avatar: The Last Airbender
Avatar: The Last Airbender takes place in a world home to humans, fantastic animals, and spirits. Human civilization is divided into four nations: the Water Tribe, the Earth Kingdom, the Fire Nation, and the Air Nomads. Each nation has a distinct society, wherein people known as Benders have the ability to manipulate the eponymous element of their nation using the physical motions of martial arts. The show's creators based each Bending style on an existing martial art, leading to clear visual and physical differences in the techniques used by waterbenders (T'ai chi ch'uan), Earthbenders (Hung Ga kung fu, for the most part), Firebenders (Northern Shaolin kung fu) and Airbenders (Baguazhang). At any given time, there is only one person alive in the story's world capable of 'bending' all four elements: the show's eponymous Avatar, the spirit of the planet in human form. When an Avatar dies, this spirit is reincarnated into the next nation in the Avatar Cycle, in the order of the seasons, and must master each bending art in seasonal order, starting with their native element. Additionally, the Avatar possesses an ability called the Avatar State, which briefly endows it with the knowledge and abilities of all past Avatars as a self-triggering defense mechanism, which can be made subject to the will of the user by extensive trial and training. If an Avatar is killed in the Avatar State, the reincarnation cycle is broken, and the Avatar entity will cease to exist. Through the ages, the succeeding Avatars have served to keep the four nations in harmony, and maintain world order. The Avatar serves as the bridge between the physical world and the Spirit World, allowing each to solve problems that normal benders cannot.The events one hundred years before the beginning of the show are revealed gradually and out of order throughout the series. More than a century before the beginning of the series, the ruler of the Fire Nation, Fire Lord Sozin, hatched plans for world subjugation. Knowing that Avatar Roku, a fellow Firebender and Sozin's best friend, would oppose these plans, Sozin arranged for Roku's death, and the Avatar was reincarnated as an Airbender named Aang. Aang was initated into the truth of his status years too early, the needs of the ongoing world war outweighing that of his childhood, despite the protests of his mentor Monk Gyatso. Aang, fearful of his new responsibilities, and of separation from his Monk Gyatso, fled his home on his flying bison Appa; they were subsequently forced by a storm into the ocean, and Aang's protective Avatar State encased them in an iceberg, in suspended animation. Fire Lord Sozin then carried out a genocide of the Air Nomads; the entire people were wiped out, leaving Aang as the eponymous last Airbender. The war continued for a hundred years. Sozin passed away of natural causes, and was succeeded by first Azulon and then Azulon's second son Ozai, the ruling Fire Lord at the time of the series.

Katara (Mae Whitman) is a 14-year-old Waterbender of the Southern Water Tribe. With her brother Sokka, she accompanies Aang on his quest to defeat the Fire Lord and, eventually, becomes his Waterbending master. Katara is the only surviving waterbender of the Southern Water Tribe and one of only two Waterbenders able to control human bodies by bending the water therein (an ability used twice in the series). Katara is usually kind-hearted and generous, but is deeply hurt and often angered by treachery. In an earlier version of the pilot episode, Katara's name was Kaya; this later is stated to be her mother's name

Black History Month is a national annual observance for remembrance of important people and events in the history of the African diaspora. It is celebrated annually in the United States and Canada in February and the United Kingdom in the month of October. The remembrance originated in 1926 by historian Carter G. Woodson as "Negro History Week". Woodson chose the second week of February because it marked the birthdays of two Americans who greatly influenced the lives and social condition of African Americans: former President Abraham Lincoln and abolitionist and former slave Frederick Douglass. Woodson also founded the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History, now the Association for the Study of African American Life and History.
The history of African Americans and Black America is given close consideration during Black History Month. National, social, scientific and political contributions by black americans are recognized during Black History Month. Historic accounts related to the civil war era, the civil rights movement of 1955-1968, mainstream technological advances and inventions that have had positive impact on the economy of a nation are often considered.
