People need to know African-American history, but I don't think there should be a "month" for it. It should be taught in history classes, along with the histories of all the other cultural groups.

Black is a race (negr0 skill race additionally) African American is an ethnicity consequently that's a threat to be black yet not African American. besides the fact that all African individuals are black. not in all probability complicated.

I think Black history month is dead. There are so many problems affecting black people now that who cares who was the first black person to go the moon. This wont answer anything

Is celebrating history still needed? Then of course celebrating African American history is still needed. of course there is a cultural divide -- however Black history month is not the cause of it.

Although I am not an african american , i would like to tell you that i think people should celebrate black histroy because all that the africans went through ,is going to go to nothing? We humans should celebrate that month for the good. Many africans went through presser and that presser should be remembered. I think it should be celebrated.
