I hear all the talk about black history month to which I have no issue with it being....
But something has all my life given me pause...
Is the slavery and shooting of asians on mass in the pacifc northwest , as well as thier WW 2 interment, not something that justifes say Asian Hertiage Month?
How about the Mexican invasion of California, Arizona and New
Mexico. Does the killings done in favor of "manifest Destiny", not justify a Latino History Month?
And speking of "Manifest Destiny" how about the attempted genocide of the Native american cultures? Does this not beg for a Native American Cultures month?
It is increasingly becoming my perception that African americans belive only they have ever been oppressed , and all the stuff above clearly contradicts that...what do you think?
