On my former blog I started a series called ‘Faces of Our History’ where I highlighted people who embody Black History. I hope you guys enjoy this month as much as I do. Also if you have anyone in mind you think I should highlight please feel free to email me: iamsunnyd@yahoo.com
I love history and learning about my ancestors and those who help us achieve our history!! I know we all are used to hearing some names, but I’m going to bring you people you probably have never heard about.

hard to believe that discrimination was legal about two generations ago..

As a global citizen and a blood-bought Christian, I want to say that “Black History Month” means very little to me. All my life I have been coerced into recognizing, celebrating, and feeling guilty for the Black experience in the U.S. and elsewhere.
My Japanese/Angloid forbears had absolutely nothing to do with slavery.
They neither bought nor profited from the labor of African slaves
I am finished. I don’t care about the issues of the African-American population. Work it out for yourselves.
The sooner we see ourselves as citizens of the USA and stop with special-interest ethnic grievances the sooner & higher our nation will rise.
That is my subjective and well-considered considered opinion.

Interesting way of thinking, I don’t agree with it but hey its your opinion. Glad you were bold enough to share your thoughts of lack thereof about the issues of the African-American population.
We care about it, we also care about other people, races, and nationalities being treated fairly. I don’t think we don’t see ourselves as citizens of USA, we know we are but as citizens we aren’t treated fairly, but why should I waste time explaining that to someone who doesn’t care.
I guess this is the point where we respectfully agree to disagree.
