Correct, but sectioning out a month for black people just enforced a division between people. At one point when the accomplishments of black people was suffering from what’s now cancel culture, it needed to exist. Those days are gone. Just have history, all of it.
Cultural celebrations are a part of history. During Black History month you can do such awesome things as learn about The Tuskegee Airmen, Chuck Berry and other legendary artists who created rock n roll. In my town, there are local restaurants that celebrate with seasonal food that is bomb. Sharing your culture is human, and black culture is a huge part of American culture, all cultures that join the melting pot are. Spread the love, the season is for everyone.
All I want to say is that if you think it was Black History Month that taught people about Chuck Berry, you’re for one thing clearly born after Back To The Future came out. Dude was a legend. The other dude has a point: you don’t have to ONLY learn about black achievements during BHM. It should be all the time. But instead y’all jumped on the guy assuming he meant we shouldn’t teach black history AT ALL.
Don’t worry about them. They have no reading comprehension. Your argument is we shouldn’t segregate when we teach black history, it should just be a part of all people’s history that we teach all of the time. You’re not advocating for less black history, if anything your advocating for more. They just want to get offended.
What is this article replacing it with? A month about oil and the civil war? Does that sound more culturally enlightening to you? We can read, we just enjoy black history month. Why is that a problem?
Republicans: *Make it illegal to teach Slavery and Black History."
You: Celebrating Black History is Divisive!
I hope you don’t live near a school with Republicans being some of the most Violent Mass Killers in America (Right Wing Terrorism vs Left Wing Terrorism shows you this!)!
i intentionally misrepresent what black history month is about and why, so i can then tear it down because the only way i can make my shit point is through strawmen
This u?
Open your goddamn eyes, black peoples are still disenfranchised and are affected by bigotry and hate, from both the institutions and plain old ~30+% of their countrymen.
The fuck you mean tHoSe DaYs aRe GoNe? You sound like the fascists in this nation trying to reframe history and muddy the waters with “that was then this is now” bullshit.
Yep that’s him. I became aware of him yesterday when he told us all it’s not the 50s anymore, so no queer people are afraid of coming out anymore. This guy’s handle should be _confidentlyincorrect_65837.
Black history month is not just for black people.

People get born later as time goes on. Don’t see why that means I have to learn about Chuck Berry from a movie.
So your argument is none of that can be taught at any other time?

Good point, I just realized the dude is just a throwaway account to spew his fascist talking points lul.
