I can do that longer than a month.
Thank god it’s the shortest month of the year.
The Sacramento kings just had the black national anthem sung before the national anthem. Why not just drive that wedge between us all a little deeper.
I don’t understand why we need a black history month when there’s no White, Hispanic or Asian history month.
“The Sacramento kings just had the black national anthem sung before the national anthem. “
Can we have a No Kings rally ?
the company i have worked for the past 40 years, Prudential, which was far left wing, has done nothing promoting Black History month the past two years...how coincidental....
It all started back in 1976 during my 2nd Army deployment to Germany.
Race relations were bad, lots of fighting between young (and I empathize young) black and white soldiers.
So the Military thought that by honoring black soldiers, etc, it would calm the savage beast.
It really didn't, it made things worse.
The positive things about black history are the Republican parts. Sadly, this information has not been shared, even withheld, from most black Americans. Here is one of many excellent articles at the National Black Republican Association, and a good starting point:

Thank you for your service.

How many schools teach the truth about the KKkK being the thug branch of the Democrat party?
How many teach that the man who freed the slaves was a Republican?
How many teach how the blacks invented cars, electricity, telephone, radio, cotton gin? (Just kidding about that one.)
Answer: The defendant.
The precursor to Black History Month was created in 1926 in the United States, when historian Carter G. Woodson and the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History (ASNLH) announced the second week of February to be “Negro History Week”. This week was chosen because it coincided with the birthday of Abraham Lincoln on February 12 and that of Frederick Douglass on February 14, both of which Black communities had celebrated since the late 19th century.

I note we have Black History and Pride months, but only one Veteran’s Day.
blacks have a terrible inferiority complex that is pushed by their leaders and white “educated” liberals, mostly white females. They act like m they are “owed” a living and blame others for not being educated and violent.
