Black HIstory Month

It is stupid to think that Black History month is a bad thing. Black History month celebrates us as Americans overcoming a huge road-bump in progress, slavery. In some cases it could be taken as offensive. In the early years of America we used slavery to get everything done like farming and the stuff landowners didn't want to do. We fought a whole war in our own country to decide the end of slavery, so yeah it is important and needs to be remembered. People like Martin Luther King Jr. were huge inspirations for the people of the 50's he gave people hope. He was killed for something he and many people believed in, and he non-violently fought for those privileges. So I think that Black History month is very important in our society.
