The human race needs to stop thinking in terms of race, and realize we are just the HUMAN RACE, not omg black omg white omg brown omg pink.

Human nature will always pick out things to put each other down about, skin color is an easy one to use because it's such an apparent and visible difference. Doesn't really make a difference if it's right or wrong, that's just how it is.

"Black History Month is nothing more than a celebration of SOFTER NEGROES that white people don't feel threatened by. Which means deep down there is more concern for not upsetting white people then there is for black people learning our history."

something told me not to bring this thread over here...... a white history month....really.... you do realize thats regular history right... or have you not been paying attention in class. i'm sure 90% of the people can tell me who harness electricity or who invented the telephone. but how many can tell who invented the the traffic light or the blood bank?? hell i can name all the leaders of the roman empire and most of the royal family of france and england. so white history can have the rest of the year..... and as far as the other races. i would love to learn more about them.

you should be happy I don't know and you don't live in my city especially seeing that I'm not in a good mood today. Regardless of what you think BHM has a purpose and I won't let you or anyone discredit that.

Calm down shaq, not everyone is going to agree or have the same view, that is why we live in america.

yea but if you started a thread about your history and someone came in and said it was stupid, you cant tell me you wouldnt be pissed.... i agree this is america and people can do as they please. but if you dont agree with it why post here???? when i see a thread i dont care about i just dont go tot it.... it makes no sense to come here and start heckling.... now continuing with the topic at hand

Richard Spikes (1884-1962) was an African-American engineer from San Francisco, California. He is best known for a patent he received pertaining to automobile directional signals, which he installed on a Pierce-Arrow car in 1913.

are you stating that you hate african americans? Obviously we are not he same and won't have the same views which is fine by me but when you go out your way to fuck with someone or disrespect them you deserve to get punched in the fucking face
I have nothing against any race and never will because I'm not that kinda person. Your original statement is straight disrespect to an entire race. You don't see us coming into your house on cinco de mayo saying fuck mexicans......regardless of your views you must learn to respect all people in general regardless of skin color and culture. /rant

Surely, but that does not mean forgetting history and knowing your roots and where you come from.

Gotta love the first amendment.

In which case Thanksgivings Day is nothing more than a celebration of the slaughtering of thousands and thousands in which we eat our stolen foods on the very soil of a country we raped, pillaged and depised the children of the indigenous people that were born as a result of our own benefit. Shooting and rape? That's not thanking.

Colombus Day is nothing more than the celebration of the start of the mentioned rape and exploitation of many Carribean and South American countries like Jamaica, Haiti, Venezuela, Colombia, Peru, etc which did nothing for the people but set up corrupt governments that would later starve and deprive their own people of the natural resources and supplies they would sell of in the name of commercialism.

Why do people complain about this month being claimed as black history month? Does it make your life uneasy? Do you feel it is unjust? The civil rights movement took place decades ago and now we're saying "Aww let's just forget about it and move on." Plenty of people are recognized in Black History month including Jean Jacques Dessalines, who lead the Haitian revolution by enslaving the original slave masters and subjecting them to the same torture they put on their slaves. I would hardly call that "concern for not upsetting white people". Black history month was created for the love of our people, not for the hatred of others. People need to realize this.

So the question here is this, what is wrong with people learning their history (which is the entire reason why this thread was created) ?
