Jesus H. Christ, some of you people are grumpy!
Mini -- fuck off. Even if I buy your claim to being a Cherokee, which I'm not sure I do, the history of the Native Americans is important to me and mine too.
The Infidel -- "Victim mentality"? Really? Because we teach kids about the accomplishments of people who struggled?
Not sure who asked me -- "these people" who built, ran and used the Underground Railroad. ALL of them -- that specific enough?
Holy fuck, you guys.
I agree. A month DOESN'T cut it. Here is my proposal to the native Americans.
Get rid of the reservations. You act like you want a "sovereign nation" but suck off the federal government on a daily basis. Your "public housing" looks like shit. Nine out of ten houses doesn't even look "livable". I say take all of the registered tribal members and split the reservation land between them equally and throw them in with everyone else with property taxes and NO MORE fucking free pass casinos.

Ahh......there's that unconditional, compassionate consideration of others you're so famous for Maddy! "Fuck off, you maybe Indian, maybe not Indian!"
What a hypocritical, disingenuous, politically correct thing to say!
If I am, or am not, does that make your self-centered diatribe any more or less ignorant, any more or less insensitive than it is?
All I said was, the story of the Underground Railroad is onna my favorite Black History Month stories. I think the "self-centered, hypocritical and politically correct" bullshit written on this thread is mostly on you, Mini.

Are you black, or did your ancestors conduct along the Underground Railroad?
Morgan Freeman, Maddy.
He gets it.
And I'm the picture of PC, aren't I?
Just ask anyone!

Is that when someone screams 'Oh, GOD' at the peak moment?
No public school in American teaches enough about the history of Blacks in America, or Native Americans, or others, because for the most part, these were poor people. We tend to focus our attention on the lives of the wealthy and powerful. We also have a desire to whitewash our past, and downplay the instances of immorality this nation has engaged in.
Ever met a kid who knew the history of the coal miners' union movement in West Virginia from school? Who knew where the Underground Railroad stations actually were? Who knew -- in detail -- what The Trail Of Tears was?
T'aint asking too much, to teach this curriculum once every school year for a month.
I learned all this in American History class.... Im sick of it being rammed down our collective throats just to pacify the victim mentality that is perpetuated every day in "the hood".
No one wants to reeeeaaalllly learn black history. They just want to teach what an awful country we live in, and nevermind the white Americans that put an end to the dispicable slave trade. If you folks really cared about black history you'd do something about the blacks who are still in slavery to this day... Hell, if you gave a shit about slavery in general, you'd be diong something about the mexicans who are being used as slaves here in America at this very moment.
Just sayin'

Aren't the Poles, Jews, Italian, Germans and Irish white?
I recall actually being taught quite a bit about the Native Americans who once lived in New York as a schoolgirl. Not much about Black Americans, other Native Americans, Asian Americans or poor whites, though. When my own kidlet was in grade school, it was even worse. That child learned more history at home than at school, IMO.
I dun object to anyone celebrating their own history, Zoom-boing. Cleveland has prolly got more ethnic festivals than anywhere else in the country, and I think they're fun. But it is a bit different to have emigrated from Ireland as opposed to kidnapped from Africa, thrown onto a slave ship, watching half the passengers die in the voyage, sold into slavery...and yet emerge from that to be citizens and successful people. Just as it is to have your land stolen, sometimes your children stolen, to almost be wiped out by genocide, to be treated TO THIS DAY like less than full citizens, and to have your culture almost forgotten.
