You have to excuse me at the moment I may have had a few beers before writing this during my pity party.
Yeah you know every year in February when we are not going crazy over the Superbowl ( Go Giants! The owner of this blog forced me to include that ) or Valentines Day we are supposed to be remembering the contributions of African Americans to America's history.
I don't know what it is but I'm feeling really neglected this year. I'm just not feeling that Black history Month love, you know? It's like no one gives a damn about me anymore
How's this for a slap in the face. a move about the Tuskegee Airmen titled Red tails was released in January, fu**ing Januray! Hey Mr.Lucas a marketing genius you ain't.
Things have really changed. Remember back in the day when those Black History Moments used to come on television? I can't believe that those seem to be the good old days here in 2012.
Some even believe that I'm not needed anymore What kind of sh** is that? What did I do to anybody?
Hell technically I'm not even Black History Month anymore. I am African American History Month now. Nobody asked me about this I just woke up one morning with a different name.
If you think I'm no longer needed you obviously have not seen the video of BYU Students discussing Black History Month.
If I go away in states like Texas the only black men students would learn about would be named Emmit Smith and Michael Irving.
But that's okay you will miss my black *ss when I'm gone. Don't ask me to come back either the name change was the last straw. I guess you will just have to trust the school districts in this country to teach ALL American History. Yeah good luck with that sh**.
