If you care so much, host your own event.

You know what is the white equivalent to black history month? It's called the rest of the year.

Suggesting "white history month" is just plain stupid. Whites have been the predominant race in this country since it was founded and have never been enslaved, or even mistreated for that matter, so why in the hell would they need a month to recognize their accomplishments? When black history month was started it was a good idea. It was truly amazing what some of those men and women went through to accomplish what they did and most people probably never would have heard about it if not for black history month. Now it's not necessary anymore and it just perpetuates race divisions IMO. But white history month? GFYS with that stupid shite

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.

No one would care about a straight pride parade.
White pride would get ugly though

I agree with most of your post but this part is ignorance. How about the Irish, Italians, Eastern Europeans and Jews? All "white" (more or less) and all were pretty badly mistreated at various times in our history.

How about a scholarship strictly for white people? Colored people have it.

Sure, there have been white people or groups of white people who have been mistreated, but I think he's saying that white people as a group haven't been marginalized.

Let it go...what would you rather be -
Straight white male with no parades or gay black man with a history month and pride parade?

St. Patrick's Day
Columbus Day
St. Andrew's Day
Oktoberfest
Why do white people pretend that there are not multiple days set aside for white people to be proud of their heritage?

No, but the events would be incredibly lame.
Straight Pride: "Hooray for me, I make babies, slithering my pathetic genes into the next generation's gene pool."
White History: "Hooray for my race, we almost conquered the whole world with only likker, gun powder and syphilis."
Count me out.

Because then there would be nothing to bitch about. Duh.

Stop being so damn greedy and bitchy. Let's turn every month into black or Hispanic history month, and we will let u have November for white history month.
