Why can't we just be taught about important figures in history? I'm sorry if you are upset that you live in a European American dominated country and most of the important history is about European Americans. But that's your own fault. That's like going to France and crying about there not being a Mexican history month. It's just stupid.
African Americans are talked about a lot in regular history class. They're talked about when they're relevant. They're not talked about when they're not relevant. Get over it.
You can't change history and pretend African Americans, a small oppressed minority, were just as influential as European Americans, the dominating people who are still the vast majority today.
You can't change history to make it more "fair". History is what it is. |

We don't celebrate white culture in history class, so why should we celebrate black culture? Why do you think their race should get special treatment?
History is mainly about wars, legislation, and social movements.
When African Americans contribute to important wars, legislation, and social movements, they're talked about. |

Not everybody in history is black. Therefore we should celebrate white culture by that logic too.
And please stop feeding the stupid BringerOfWar trolls, you goddamned morons.
