What so important about February? This one "special" month was dedicated to African American History just 28 days and yet there is 365 days is a years, less than 8% of a year. You're probably wondering why any of this matter. The fight that African Americans fought shouldn't be smushed into one month which even isn't a whole month. They shouldn't be acknowledged just for one month and we only speak of the known people. Unsung Hero, their are thousands of them and yet we only force our kids on three main people. Some school don't even celebrate this month. I'm sure every hero from then would prefer to not have a special month at all than to have one month that is barely referred to. I wouldn't want to have this month at all because fighting for my rights being abused, segregated, disrespected and belittle wasn't done to get respect for one month. It was done to empower black children and be taught in class, EQUAlITY. Every war or gaining power movement is taught other than the Civil Rights and so on. The caucasian man history is taught in every grade and every year, never fails, and slavery/segregation is skipped most time. Ask your teacher about this. Respect for one month we will pass.
