There are some things that most would not know. BHM is used for black federal employees to have all sorts of paid trips to conferences throughout the nation. It makes for a legal opportunity for them to network and make alliances whereas other federal workers are denied that privilege. It is a complete scam and you all are paying for it.

There are also other months designated for other smaller groups such as Asian/Pacific Islanders; Gay Lesbian and transsexuals; Native Americans, just to name a few.

It is all a political scam.

Guess what group doesn't get a month?

No. I think it's funny that it is the shortest month of the year

Pretty sure MLK would not want a day honoring what he did. He would have said that he was only one piece of the struggle.

And yes, there should be a day honoring the civil rights struggle.

Too much to consider now. I'm debating how I'm going to celebrate. Will it be "ebony" or "interracial" porn tonight?

O.K. if we can get a couple of months for white history month ..... oh hell, lets just make it the other 10 so we can cover it better.

I'd be good with getting rid of BHM all together

Lot of bitterness in this thread

That said, I don't see the difference having a month dedicated to black history makes for me
