re: if we had straight pride events or ask for white history month

I think I agree with all of that. As time goes on the need for a black history month should get less and less. I think the whole idea was that black people were excluded from recognition in main stream history. Now that black folk have mostly equal opportunity, they should find their way into typical history. The best example of this is Obama. You don't need a black history month to learn about a man who is president of the United States.
