I'm Irish, and all us Irish get is a day! There is no Hispanic month! There is no Caucasian month! Of course not! If us Caucasians tried to have our own history month, we would be called racists!

Ok dont get me wrong, I'm not racist, I've got nothing agaisnt the Blacks, but I find it stupid that they get a whole month devoted to their history...same for all races. If they want their history talked about in America than it should be mixed in all the months just like every other races! Sure the Africans went through alot with the whole being enslaved, but were they all that smart back then (Im not sayin they arent now because they are, there are some extremely smarts blacks nowadays) I mean why didnt they arrange and ambush or something to prevent the enslaving. ...Im not sure why blacks think the whites and the rest of the world owe them so much, because truthfully they didnt go through much more than others went through at some point! Not to mention that about half of all prisons are filled with blacks, not that the other races dont commit crimes. When we do something against their wishes suddenly we are the racists, but what about the **** they do to us, we dont run around callin them racist! Okay I'm done venting, now off to vent about illegal Mexicans.

Actually honey let me Correct you Caucasian's have a 12 month history report in the world because although we ask for 28 days we are still clouded by your history. Trust me everybody of every race has made some major contributions to the World. If you remember correctly schools just recently started teaching black history in the last 12 years. We have fought hard and long for this little 28 day month. You all have another 337 days of the year. And why are you complaining we are not forcing you to participate in any activities. And as far as what there are 2 fully black channels. Again are you mad because you should not be when we have been forced to sit and look at white faces for the entire creation of television. I believe every culture should have there own television stations. Hell doesn’t look at them. Every time I turn on the TV I see WHITE People and I am not complaining. Hell Caucasian's have HUNG, RAPES, KILLED, STOLE US AND WORKED US FOR PROFIT OVER THE PAST 300 YEARS. The world should be lucky this is all we ask for. Because not only "Black" people should be bitching. I believe Indians and Hispanics should have there own month to. And as far as the UNCF. It is a proven fact African Americans have been treated unfair when it comes to getting into college and getting scholarships. Hell you are complaining you should be happy we are not asking you to give money we are helping ourselves. DAMN WHAT DO YOU WANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Every race has different cultures that now are being recognized and at least the would is taking the take. Please don’t set the world back.

Actually...Hispanic Heritage month is in September, American Heritage month is in November, Women's History month is in March, and Asian/Pacific Islander month is in May. And why would you want Caucasians to have a mere month when their history is taught in schools throughout the entire year? I wonder why this is even still a question.

heavily, i might convey a metamorphosis of clothing and a few diapers. A blanket/sweater if it is going to likely be chilly such as you suggested, and the toddler service/sling. you're incredibly overthinking this. i pass out all day with my 3 3 hundred and sixty 5 days previous and 3 month previous generally. I placed on toddler in the sling, convey the stroller if mandatory for the three 3 hundred and sixty 5 days previous, and have some greater diapers than I generally might. there is not any desire for a suitcase.

National Hispanic Heritage Month and Irish-American Heritage Month exist.

Here's a better question. Why after all that blacks have gone through in this country, are you whining about the shortest month of the year? There is Irish-American recognition, you even get a parade! So don't bust a shamrock! Give us recognition for being door mats for 400 years!

Every month is white history month. American society is EUROCENTRIC.
FYI - there is a Hispanic Heritage month http://latino.sscnet.ucla.edu/heritage/hhhispan.htm
If Americans celebrated the culture of diverse ethnic groups that populated this country *every day*, then there would be no need to have history months. :-)

I guess because in the USA, the blacks were slaves for years and suffered greatly at the hands of the white race. After slavery was abolished they still had to fight for their rights, my goodness, they couldn't sit in some restaurants, or if they rode a bus it was at the back. I see no big deal in this type of recognition. They have contributed to the lives of many and deserve some Kudos's. By the way I am a white, Canadian.

Actually, if you KNEW anything about why "Black History Month" is on the calendar in the first place, you wouldn't say that. Sounds like you need to go do a little homework before you grumble and complain about something you don't understand.
Peace!
