Black History Month

[S.J.]

And you? What have your brains done for this country?

More than you'll ever know, asswipe.

Well speak up, big mouth. Unless you are completely full of shit, that is.

Did I upset the angry black man?

I don't know, go ask one. In the meantime, you have just declared for all to see that you are completely full of shit. Well done.

Oh, come on now, Leroy. You know the black man commits the bulk of crimes in this country. If I'm wrong, why are the prisons full of blacks?

 

[Unkotare]

More Black history should be taught in our schools. Their sweat, brains, and labor helped make this country great.

African American History Month 2013

Sweat and labor maybe, but brains? Not hardly.

And you? What have your brains done for this country?

In case anyone was wondering, S.J.'s answer is apparently: ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. He's just another idiot shooting his mouth off about "brains" when he clearly has none himself.

Answer to what? If you think I'm gonna give you my resume, think again, asshole. The only thing the black man has contributed to this country is crime, and all your bitching and moaning won't change that fact. Black history month is supposed to highlight the successes of blacks in our society but unfortunately there aren't enough successes to fill even a week, let alone a month. Negroes are still on the bottom rung of the achievement ladder, and no matter how much the white man tries to help them, they will always be on the bottom. You'll never be able to stand on your own two feet.

There you have it folks, S.J. admitting that he is completely and utterly full of shit. Thanks for confirming what everyone already knew, you worthless idiot.

The study of BLACK HISTORY is a subset of the study of AMERICAN history.

One doesn't really need a BLACK FOCUSED history to get it that the BLACKS were screwed, and that the process of screwing them was perverting our republic since inception.

But studying SUBSETS of history is something that is done in history. All sorts of topic/issue specifric history are needed for that dicipline.

Some historians study US military history, and I don't see anybody bitching about that.

Some historians focus on ecopnomic history and that's no problem.

But BLACK history pisses some people off.

Why?

Because they don't understand history or why and how it works.

 

[Unkotare]

What exactly have you ever done "to help them," hero?

You have demonstrated your ignorance and bigotry on this matter by your post, imo.

because it's hypocritical and racist and being shoved down our throats

Because they're are absolutely no Black inventors, innovators, businessmen nor academics in the history of ever. Nope not one.

There are many of all of those: black inventors, innovators, businessmen and women, as well as scholars, academics, artists, political leaders, etc. You don't know about them, presuming you paid attention in school, because they are not taught: hence the reason for black history month. You are a perfect example of how racism and ignorance go hand in hand.

To be fair we're all probably missing a lot in our history education.

We generally don't single out Italian-Americans, German-Americans, Irish-Americans, Jewish-Americans, etc when we talk about great people in history.

Perhaps that is the rub for some people on here. We only call out African-Americans in their perception.

And it is difficult to hide the utter distaste that comes up around white males in this country. But, to each his own...you find what you look for.

 

[Truthmatters]

the right hates black history becasue it teaches about their treatment of black voters and the republicans lone history of cheating voters

That is true of every ethnic group. How about we simply focus on American history, of ALL Americans?

Why do you want to divide and separate like that?

 

[Truthmatters]

because the right tries to hide this history

 

[eflatminor]

Link?

Liar...once again.

 

[aplcr0331]

The Right tries to hide history? So...conservatives have power within our educational system? Conservaties hold positions of power in the upper echelons of higher education as well?

Italian, German, Irish and Jewish Americans (white males) are not left out of the history texts used in American public schools. Black Americans and female Americans usually are: hence Black History Month and women's studies courses in our universities. If you are a white male, you probably don't believe it. If you are black or a female of any color, you notice the lack of people who are either your color or gender as far as their inclusion in the history taught in our schools. People tend to think if they are not there, they had no part in the history of the country, until, upon researching the issue, they find, to their suprise, they had a great deal to do with the history of our country. Surprise, surprise. And, of course, one reason why blacks and woman may have had less participation in the professions is because they were either not allowed to join certain professions or they were not allowed in the universities that trained people for those professions: often it was both, until the late 1800s or even not until the 1900s.
