Many schools celebrate this wonderful event of history by taking the time from their busy schedule to think about how much these black people of history changed the present day century and how they will continue to help the world. I mean look at present day elections. Two new things happening..... a black male is running for president and is actually doing a fabulous job as far as caucus's go... and a female running for president that also has a great chance of winning as well!!!!! And to think that it was people like Abraham Lincoln and Martin Luther King Jr. that helped do this way before they even knew it was cumming. Look at our world today, and imagine, very seriously, how it would be without so many black heroes there to help us!!!!! A world of disaster, hurt, war, hunger, slavery, and so many more things..... STOP AND APPRECIATE IT!!!!!

Why is there a black history month but not a white history month?

People learn of white history every month of the year, and that is including in Black History month. To have a month set aside would be surely redundant and only reinforce what is reinforced everyday in society and schools.


What was the cause of black history month?

Black History Month originated from a desire to recognize and celebrate the contributions and achievements of African Americans throughout history. It began as "Negro History Week," established by historian Carter G. Woodson in 1926, to highlight the often-overlooked stories of Black individuals and their impact on society. The week was expanded to a month in 1976, during the U.S. Bicentennial, to promote a more comprehensive understanding of Black history and culture. It serves as a time for reflection, education, and recognition of the ongoing struggles for equality and justice.

Why are white people rude to black people when it's Black History Month?

Some whites are rude to blacks during Black History Month because they claim it is unfair and unequal to others without a history month. This is unfounded since there are other months designated for other races; they simply are not as high profile as Black History Month. Some even claim there is no White History Month which many have to repeat back that there is; it is every month on the calender. Since white history is taught no matter what, there is no need to have any specific month for it which is what many hope will happen for Black History and which is the whole point of it; that history about black Americans will be taught not because of a month, but because it is history and needs to be known.
