The month doesn't preach hate for another race and it doesn’t show the supremacy of one race.

I honestly don't see the problem with the month. The month affects no one and everybody I know that actually pays attention to the month; usually learn something new (including me). I would like to know more about other races too and I don't see a problem with Asian, Spanish, White history month. Its just that you white ppl take shit too far when it involves race. If you guys could do without the cross burning and going on coon hunts, I don't see a problem with a month showing the accomplishment of whites. If you don't like Black history month, then go into a comma during Black history month


this is the most ignorant bs ive ever read....


why ask for equality but when you are offered it u cry about ur little history month. I thinkBHM is bullshit and another crutch for those black people who still feel like they ever had anything to do with slavery....get over it....
