| well i may get flammed....im not a racist for one but I find this black history month a bit ridiculous now. I understand they have been opressed(i think thats the word I was looking for) for many years but how can we come together and stop racisim when a set race gets their own month to celebrate their "blackness' why cant white people get their white history month and the hispanics get hispanic history month...I say that should happen every race should get their own history month. I find it more racist that one race gets a month and the rest dont get ......eh whatever thats my vent of the day |

I have to agree here,I think it is time to move on and stop feeling sorry about what happend.I have the same problem with BET(the channe)I think it is a ridiculous idea pointless and all it does is that it tries to show is that black people are different from everyone else which is not true at all.
what would happen if we get a channel called the white channel?I know hell would brake loose.
bottom line:lets move on people and stop separating ourselves from eachother. |

For once, I would agree with you.
I seriously dont have a problem with blacks having thier own month..I mean, seriously its just like any month, but it says Black history month. Whenever the teacher starts telling us about it, I just shut my ears and day dream :haha: . I also see your point, but I think blacks have it, because they suffered the most in this nation. I mean why would whites have thier own month? We got the other 11 :D. |

You cant just really say and do that. It will take years for blacks and whites to actually think the same, many years. Especially looking at how blacks act nowdays and with this seperation that you just mentioned. I dont have a problem with BET, its a private owned station, and its a free country that we live in. |

The reality is, that young black people today don't give a about black history.
Thats why bill cosby has to smack them around |

I feel the same way about Kwanza.
And as scary as that may sound black kids don't know or give two s about black history.
I remmember in 6th grade during black history month our teacher mentioned that the following day we'll be learning about Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr and this one black kid is like "oh, that's muh nigga" |

They suffered the second most.
The Native Americans suffered worse. |

That's because they've been conditioned into thinking that way. |

| It's a tough one. I personally think that race is a percived thing, but as it does exist as a perception it has to be delt with in a pragmatic way. However as you've said if a special black history month is the best way to that is another matter. |

Whats up with you and resources man lol?
Well, yeah they did, but there arent many of them left so I guess, and plus they do not play a bigger role then African Americans do. |
