Re Black History Month:
Not only that, but we have 2 months of Black History Month. First there’s January, because of MLK’s birthday, then February, the official BHM.

I stand with Stacey!

Sit, stand, lie down...hell I'd mow her lawn and clean her pool if that meant to two of us, um, furthering racial harmony.

Let’s see BET have an awards show where they nominate both black and white actors/actresses..they have their own freakin channel. Can you imagine if they had “White Entertainment Television” network or “White History Month” what the reaction would be

Ultimately they can’t despise racism and still get to be racist.

I would not discriminate against someone that looks like Stacey, and spoke Conservative values.

Their problem is that they shout about wanting to be equal, they then complain about whites holding them down, and then they have their own segregation.

When there's been a black president there's no need for a black history month. We need to teach people about America instead.
