I don't really see much of a problem with their being a real Black History month. As it is now the problem I see is that Black History month has little to do with actual Black history. All I seem to remember about it is a bunch of hoopla having to do with Rosa Parks, Harriet Tubman, Martin Luther King, etc. I don't think people from Africa give 2 shits about those people. I would think that Black History would deal with the African nations and such since isn't that the real "Black History"? Instead they should call what they have now "African American History Month". The Black History thing is a huge fucking joke. I actually would be sort of interested to hear about the origins of the African nations and African people in general.

They should cover that in school, which I feel they don't do a good enough job doing, but I don't see a reason for a designated month to where you should have to learn about black history.
