History of BLACK History Month

BLACK History Month wouldn’t have been possible without Negro History Week’s creation in the United States in 1926. Famous historian Carter G. Woodson and the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History proclaimed the second week of February to be observed as Negro History Week. Since the inception of this event, the main focus was to encourage the teaching of the history of BLACK Americans in educational institutes, particularly at the primary level. The departments of education of Delaware, North Carolina, and West Virginia were very cooperative. The overall reception was lukewarm, but Woodson considered it a success and “one of the most fortunate steps ever taken by the Association.” In February 1969, the idea for BLACK History Month was promoted by BLACK students and educators at Kent State University, followed by the first celebration of BLACK History Month on campus and local surroundings one year later. Fast forward six years and BLACK History Month was widely being celebrated across the country, and not only in schools, colleges, and community centers. In 1976, President Gerald Ford praised BLACK History Month, urging all citizens to “seize the opportunity to honor the too-often neglected accomplishments of Black Americans in every area of endeavor throughout our history.”

It began as a way of remembering important people and events in the history of the African diaspora. It is celebrated in February in the United States and Canada, while in Ireland, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom it is observed in October. BLACK History is a time when African-Americans can take the time out and see what the people before them fought for. BLACK History is a time of rejoicing, celebrating and thanking those Africans for giving us hope or a life lesson that could be used.

In Celebration of American Black History Month. Martin Luther King Jr. is perhaps the most famous African-American otherwise known as MLK followed by Rosa Parks. Muhammad Ali. Frederick Douglass. W.E.B Du Bois. Jackie Robinson. Harriet Tubman. and Sojourner Truth.

Honoring WWII,s first all BLACK female battalion

A local non-profit is screening a documentary about the 6888th Battalion who served during WWII as part of BLACK History Month. On Wednesday, Congress reported they gained more support for the required supermajority numbers to award the 6888th Central Post Directory Battalion the Congressional Gold Medal. This was the first all BLACK female unit that was deployed during WWII. They faced discrimination, sexism, and horrendous working conditions. In February of 1945, 77-years-ago, the ship set sail for Birmingham, England, carrying 855 BLACK women to sort the mail for the seven million Americans fighting in the war.

"Oh, I almost forgot," I say, reaching into my pocket. "I wrote you a poem." I hand her the slip of paper. "Here." I feel sick and broken, tortured, really on the brink.

"Oh Patrick." She smiles. "How sweet."

"Well, you know," I say, looking down shyly.

Bethany takes the slip of paper and unfolds it.

"Read it," I urge enthusiastically.

She looks it over quizzically, puzzled, squinting, then she turns the page over to see if there's anything on the back. Something in her understands it's short and she looks back at the words written, scrawled in red, on the front of the page.

"It's like haiku, you know?" I say. "Read it. Go on."

She clears her throat and hesitantly begins reading, slowly, stopping often. "The poor cupcakeer on the wall. Look at him." She pauses and squints again at the paper, then hesitantly resumes. "Look at the poor cupcakeer. Look at the poor cupcakeer... on... the...wall." She stops again, faltering, looks at me, confused, then back at the paper.

"Go on," I say, looking around for a waiter. "Finish it."

She clears her throat and staring steadily at the paper tries to read the rest of it in a voice below a whisper. "Fuck him... Fuck the cupcakeer on the wall."She falters again, then reads the last sentence, sighing. "Black man...is...de...debil?"

She's a dot head, not a negress.

 

[Colonel Kira's Left Tit]

I'd probably bang her while listening to her recite legal precedence for keeping black people in jail.

 

[jack]

I'd pay to see that.

My guess is, her gag reflex is orgasmic.

 

[The Question]

Let's condense it:

1. African blacks got enslaved by... each other.
2. European whites bought some blacks from the blacks who enslaved their own kind. Not a good deal, but hey, caveat emptor.
3. Whites oppressed blacks for 400 years, until whites freed blacks. That's right -- you motherfuckers didn't free yourselves.
4. Blacks now keep themselves down while trying to pick a fight with whitey, who had spent centuries handling the shit out of 'em.

Condensed further:

Culturally, blacks are moronic and self-destructive.

Now that that's out of the way, let's enjoy the rest of the month.

Did you know, the KKK were actually the first people to celebrate black history month?​

If they saw you, and you were black, you were history.

Racism is institutionalized throughout the US​

Why else would black history be celebrated during the shortest month!
