It needs revision before the upcoming Black History Month thread

To be fair black people have lived in the US longer than 99% of it's current """"""""""white"""""""""" population :^)

>>70709939
This is true, but not true enough to have black people stop telling me my ancestors owned theirs as slaves

>>70709840
i've never head of this desu

when black history is talked about over here, it's either american stuff, some revisionist stuff about how jamaicans who arrived after WW2 "rebuilt" britain and some stuff about the 'black florence nightingale' mary seacole who was an extremely racist mulatto woman

>>70709495
You know what's even shorter? A day.

Or just as normal countries, no day.

>>70709939
True

>Black History Month often sparks an annual debate about the continued usefulness and fairness of a designated month dedicated to the history of one race. Criticism include questions over whether it is appropriate to confine the celebration of black history to one month, as opposed to integration of black history into the mainstream education the rest of the year. Another criticism is that contrary to the original inspiration for Black History Month, which was a desire to redress the manner in which British schools failed to represent black historical figures as anything other than slaves or colonial subjects, Black History Month reduces complex historical figures to overly simplified objects of hero worship. Another criticism, usually leveled by whites,[who?] is that the celebration is racist.[11]

>Black celebrities such as actor and director Morgan Freeman and actress Stacey Dash have criticized Black History Month,[12][13] with Freeman saying, "I don't want a black history month. Black history is American history." Freeman has argued that there was no White History Month, because white people did not want their history relegated to just one
month.[14]

>be American
>confine Black History into one month

>>70709467

>>70710252
I think the reason there's no white histoty month is because americans have - and to this day continue to - struggle to retain the specific culture of their ancestors, even if it's just in meme-form. Blacks don't. That's why they're black americans and not african-americans. They have no cultural heritage from before their peoples were enslaved. All of their history is american history.

Partially this, and also because whites have historically been the norm here, so "White History" is redundant and somewhat racist.

Why are black universities and black chambers of commerce not considered racist?
Why is affirmative action not considered racist?

>>70711481
Because blacks have not been the same position of power as whites in American history, and historically had to band for themselves.

>>70710712
For example the richest man in history was the king of mali

Be honest, has anyone actually said this to you in person? I've never heard any black person say this to anyone in real life.

>>70711382
>The Commonwealth Realms are each fully sovereign nations who happen to share monarchs.
You fucking retard. Here's the actual quote from a commonwealth meeting:

>Under the London Declaration, India agreed that, when it became a republic in January 1950, it would accept the British Sovereign as a "symbol of the free association of its independent member nations and as such the Head of the Commonwealth".

>Upon hearing this, King George VI told the Indian politician Krishna Menon: "So, I've become 'as such'".

>The other Commonwealth countries recognised India's continuing membership of the association.

>At Pakistan's insistence, India was not regarded as an exceptional case and it was assumed that other states would be accorded the same treatment as India.

I literally buy some chicken, draw a pentagram in the fire pit in my backyard, set up my camping tripod, and start the fire. When the fire is big is enough I take my battered and oiled chicken drumsticks, wrap tinfoil around them and hang them from the tripod. While they're frying I play Biggie Smalls' "Ready To Die" on my phone.

I came up with idea for luls on a drunken night and actually went through with it, I had some chicken drumsticks in the fridge anyway and it turned out delicious.

I do this on Feb 1st every year as my own little tradition. A buddy of mine now comes over to join me, been doing it for about 4 years now.

I think that's actually a plus for them. I mean, having no cultural heritage in the form of attachement to some other people from some other country makes them, well, fre, and truly attached to their country. It's also far better than having a meme-tier cultural heritage attachment anyway.

However most of black american things are retarded. Like that 'black history month' thing. It's like giving green light to divisive, segregationist narratives of 'we' and 'them'. In addition to just being incredibly retarded per se.

Do you have fennoswede history month in Sweden?
