366 Days of Black History (Day 2)

Featured Replies

I decided since I celebrate Black History every day that I'd ditch the 29 days of Black history month, and just do what I do can call it 366 days of celebrating Black history (or literature in this case).  Today I'm celebrate Literary Events.

Brilliant idea! I agree 100%. Now, if we could only get the rest of the American Negroes to do the same. I do not relegate our history to one month a year although I understand and appreciate the spirit of the original idea (the concept started with Mr. Carter G. Woodson in 1926). As you stated -it should be an everyday thing. Celebrating the sacrificesachievements, struggles and the individual and collective tenacity of generations of black Americans who made our lives better than theirs, should be a daily observance (IMO).

@Xeon, once March comes I'll see if anyone notices that I'm carrying Black history month beyond February and what the reaction is.

DO  THE  BLACK  CHURCHES   HAVE  BLACK   HISTORY    MONTH, ON   SUNDAY,  NOT  JUST    DR. MARTIN LUTHER  KING,  HE  WAS  NOT THE   ONLY PREACHER  MURDERED   BY   WHITE  EVIL DEMONS,// A  CONVERSATION   HOW   THE  BLACK  CHURCH  WAS A   PLACE  OF  UPLIFTING  AND  STRATEGY///NO   PREACHERS   MOTIVATED   BY   GREED  ,  STEALING   IN THE  NAME   OF THE  LORD,MONEY   LUST////THE   PREACHERS   SHOULD NOT SPEAK  DR. KING'S  NAME   ,PREACHERS    KILLING  THEIR WIVES,  BEING  WITH PROSTITUTES,  BEATING THEIR  WIVES,HAVING CHILDREN   WITH  MISTRESSES ,CHURCH  IS    SODOM AND  GOMORRAH /////
