It's black history month, brah!! Have you been getting yo learn on?

I learned that......brah....makes me want to.......

I don't want to be banned.

I've learned that Morgan Freeman, Denzel Washington, and Samuel L. Jackson are some of OT's favorite black actors.

I don't support the month nor am I still in school so no.

Funny, I don't recall any mention of it at all at my school...That's sure to win some points.

inb4 Morgan Freeman doesn't belie-

I don't believe in black history month, and neither does Morgan Freemanimaps3fanboy

Damn it! :x

I learned that black people are historically better at athletic events than other races who don't have their own months.

Black histort month is stupid and pointless.

I'm learning that people who use "brah" to sound black and/or tolerant should probably refrain.nocoolnamejim

I've learned that "brah" is yet another annoyingly overused piece of internet lingo/meme.

I think we just got trolled.

Just another double standard.

I don't hate Black History Month, its just that people don't know how to celebrate it. They think that African culture= Black Culture. They are in no way the same. If you hate BHM though, then that means that you are against any kind of pride for one's race. Just thought I'd put that out there.

EDIT:

Oh, and the term "african-american" is stupid. Not all black people are from africa, and not all people from africa are black.

Just another double standard.

I learned that AL Sharpton and Jesse jackson use this month to mark for themselves.

[QUOTE="mrmusicman247"][QUOTE="imaps3fanboy"] are you kidding me? YOU didn't go through anything. If Black people get their own month why don't the jews? 6 million of them were killedJordanizPro

I even got my own flag.

You're absolutely right. Practically speaking, however, they were enslaved for a few hundred years. They are a major reason why the U.S. is the way it is today.I don't know all the details about the Japanese "Internment Camps," but I do know that Japan has a history of isolationism. The U.S. was probably aware of this, too. They might have taken the measures they did because of that. That does not excuse their actions. If I recall, the U.S. has formally apologized.

The Japanese and African people weren't the only ones segregated against. The Chinese were essentially lied to in order to bring them to the U.S. Stories of "cities paved with gold." Nor are Europeans the only ones treating others poorly.

Also, I know the atrocities that occurred during WWII against Jews and that there's no Jewish history month. I have an idea about it, although it might seem a little rude: If you look back in history, Jews have been persecuted many times. WWII is but one of many. If I had to guess, they probably chose to humbly perservere, rather than go the route the enslaved Africans.

If anything can be learned from all this, it's that every ethniticy has it's share of good and bad apples.

what about asian month, hispanic month, any all the other people-month
