Wallace: “Black History Month, you find ...”
Freeman: “Ridiculous.”
Wallace: “Why?”
Freeman: “You're going to relegate my history to a month?”
Wallace: “Come on.”
Freeman: “What do you do with yours? Which month is White History Month? Come on, tell me.”
Wallace: “I'm Jewish.”
Freeman: “Okay. Which month is Jewish History Month?”
Wallace: “There isn't one.”
Freeman: “Why not? Do you want one?”
Wallace: “No, no.”
Freeman: “I don't either. I don't want a Black History Month. Black history is American history.”
Wallace: “How are we going to get rid of racism until ...?”
Freeman: “Stop talking about it. I'm going to stop calling you a white man. And I'm going to ask you to stop calling me a black man. I know you as Mike Wallace. You know me as Morgan Freeman.

P.S. - Black History month is racist.
Then so are Oktoberfest, Columbus Day, St. Andrew's Day, and St. Patrick's Day.
