Insightful, but I get the feeling you copied and pasted that from somewhere else.

Either way, it's amusing to read. "Too white." What do they want John Kerry to do, start wearing giant platinum chains and throwing gang signs in the air? I don't expect Al Sharpton to start listening to Jim Croce and watching televised golf. Why does La Raza expect John Kerry to conform to their standards? Is he supposed to work around their schedule instead of the people that are most likely going to actually vote for him?

I'm not a racist in the slightest, but I absolutely cannot stand racial equality groups. The 60's ended in the 60's, Civil Rights have been fought for and won. Continuing to impose your will on the white majority only serves to divide races even further. It just breeds more contempt and more irrational anger. We understand you're black and proud, that's fantastic. Can I have the month of February back now?

Why not just condense it into a single day, then? That way, maybe I'll be able to get an extra day off of work every year.

Either way, Black History Month seems a bit unfair to me. What about Hispanic History Month? Asian History Month? White America has treated them just as badly.

One way or another, there is one specific group that truly deserves a month dedicated to their heritage. Native Americans. Why should the month of February be delegated to black people? We didn't invade africa, steal the continent and demolish African culture. We destroyed every facet of Native American culture that we could get our hands on. They have no "homeland" to return to, and only scraps of their heritage left to revere. White America has made Native Americans into a novelty, a cute stereotype while forcing the remaining numbers of their population into foul, squalid reservation lands. There's not a race of people on this planet that deserves a month dedicated to their heritage more than the Native Americans. Black History Month is unnecessary, because you at least have a motherland to return to.

I was joking when I said no. I don't exactly believe in it, but I'm not going to object to it either. One could argue about Africa being practically robbed naked of human, and natural resources, but that's another topic. Black History Month is just there. If it were removed, there would be no objection from me, although other African-Americans might not take it the right way. In my opinion, they're trying to fight a war which should have ended 20-30 years ago.

Yeah I agree with switching it to Native American month. I learn about black history all the time, thats why on black history month we don't learn anything more, ever the black teachers are like this.

What I find funny too is every though we have black history month, why don't we learn about how the whites didn't just go into Africa for slaves for no reason. They were buying them from the black leaders of Africa, yeah some stole. They were betrayed by your own people and put all the blame on us because they haven't learned all of it.

Not exactly, at least according to my research. There might have been some cases where tribial leaders sold slaves, but I highly doubt that there was a substantial amount of slaves shipped because they were sold by their tribes.

I think the premise that a campaign follows any one race is an idiotic notion. I like how these people think they speak for all people of their race. I know a number of black people are insulted that groups for the "advancements" of blacks push things like BET and rap as their "culture". What makes it pertain to any one select color of people? I thought we were all one race...you know, human. Or so as they told. Groups like that sure like their double standards.

Another thing I see is that when they are racist towards whites, or whatever other race, they somehow justify by going to the argument "Whites opressed us in the past". Yeah, and nobody would hire Irish people a century and a half ago but you don't see me complaining that my people are "stereotyped" and therefore disadvantaged. Give me a fucking break.

I agree, both Irish and Scottish had it really bad back in the days, if it wasn't black slaves im sure they were next in line. I am Irish, Scottish, and Native American and I hate what the "white" people did to my ancestors but I dont hate or use that against the whites these days because they have done nothing.

I agree that BET and Black History month, or anything for blacks only just increases racism on the whites side. We all do know white people can't do anything "white" only stuff.

Me living in a well mixed area, Florida. I see lots of different races here, and the most racist are blacks. Black people always talk about white people, im sorry but I wont say anything about another race unless its for joke(not meaning it), or its about how they are so racist to us. I have talked to so many people about this, people who are best-friends with blacks, blacks, and other races. They agree with me, I know many blacks will admit they are the most racist.

It wasn't tribal leaders, it was African Leaders. The leaders also had blacks help capture the other blacks, as we all know some blacks did help.
