February is Black History Month (Credit: usnhistory.navylive.dodlive.mi)

Celebrated every February, Black History Month is an annual commemoration to honor and recognize the central role of African Americans in U.S. history and reflect on their continued struggle for racial justice. While President Gerald Ford is credited for officially recognizing what is also called African American History Month in 1976, the idea was the brainchild of American historian and author Dr. Carter G. Woodson.

    Very cool! I just wish that this world would never have any racial problems, and this also so sad because some Blacks just got bullied because of their appearances. This needs to stop!

                Black history moth is over but in my book the African American culture should be celebrated every month along with the rest of the cultures

                    We shouldn't have any racial problems anywhere! It is horrible to think some people get bullied just because of their appearance. Black History Month is a must to end this
