It seems racist that we still do black history month. Since people are always harping on not hurting anyone’s feelings and all, it seems like by now we would have either gotten rid of black history month altogether, or added whie history month, hispanic history month, asian history month, ect. We have been working for so long to show that all races are equal, but singling out blacks like that just seems to show sepatation.
Why is there a black history month but no asian history month or indian history month or white history month?
1. What is the one, single most, important thing that a black person has contributed to society ?
2. Since we’re not supposed to refer to them as black anymore, shouldn’t it be African American History Month ?
3. If in fact, we change it to African American History Month, would European American History Month be alright, or would that still be considered racist ?
Where can I take a child or young adult In Atlanta for Black History Month? I wanna know what cultural events and/or programs go on so that a young person can learn about their history in Atlanta, GA?

Nicholas Love discussed the actions of Tommie Smith and John Carlos during the 1968 Olympic Games.
I don’t know if this happens at your school, but every february at my school, no one bothers to put up posters or anything. Teachers, besides the black ones, don’t even bother to talk about black history. It’s kinda upsetting since i’m black and would like to have this material discussed in the classroom. And then when we do talk about some black history, people start making jokes and say i don’t care about that.
