History What does Black History Month....

The perpetual systemic racism that led to Black History Month being the shortest month of the year

Why would anything racist have it at all?

We do hear.....first African American to.............whatever it is, why do we need to know that?

You won't get far until you read.....first African American to.....
 
None, I don't see the need for any history month. If someone has an interest in the history of something the internet is the place to be for that.
Trump might end it if he acts more stupid than usual every February.
 
This is what I mean...

Phillis Wheatley Peters, also spelled Phyllis and Wheatly (c. 1753 – December 5, 1784), was an American writer who is considered the first African-American author of a published book of poetry.

Born in West Africa, she was sold into slavery at the age of seven or eight and transported to North America, where she was bought by the Wheatley family of Boston. After she learned to read and write, they encouraged her poetry when they saw her talent.
 
Doesn’t really mean anything to me personally, but that’s cool. Celebrate anyway.
 
What music to you chill with?
I hate music.

I kid, I don't hate holidays i just think they've been overly monetized which sort of wrecks their original purpose. Quality time with people you love is my jam.

As for music, ABC - anything but country.

You?
