They did teach about them when I went to school. Lord knows what they teach nowadays.

Actually Native American cultures where decimated by the Colombian Exchange. The Spanish and Portuguese infected the Southern and Central American Indian tribes with terrible communicable diseases, mostly Small Pox, Typhus and Measles, They had no immunity or ability to fight them off. It is believed that the Indian Tribes infected the sailors with Syphilis. They carried it back to their home countries where it became know as ‘the Scourge of Europe’.

It is estimated that at least one hundred million native American people died from diseases prior to the European settlement of North America. Most never came in contact with a white person or even with a person who had come in contact with someone who had even seen or heard of white Europeans.

Most of North America was almost completely uninhabited by the time the pilgrims arrived.

I honestly don’t know if this is a parody or not. I think she’s trying to be funny. If she’s not, this is disturbing. If she is, its a bit banal.

Charlize Theron is a true African American. All the rest of the pigmented racists are just ghetto rats and thugs.

If ya can’t be just a plain American, then go back to the country ya gotta hyphen with. We don’t want ya with yer fro’s, droopy pants and inability to speak articulable English. Our crime rate and general IQ will all benefit.

I though Black History month was about blacks and not limited to African-Americans. My bad.

Hmmm, it seems you are right about the Ethopians! I leaned something new today, thanks.

Ethiopian DNA studies and sundries.

I think she should be honoring Anthony Johnson (1600-1670), a black colonial planter and entrepreneur who established a major facet of colonial society.

Well, the only thing the author didn't complain about was getting screwed by "black history month" being the shortest month of the year!

Someone's pretty bitter .... ROFL!!

‘Hispanic; is neither a race or a country. It is a bull crap construct of racists who want to manipulate American welfare and Affirmative Action programs.

A majority of South Americans are WHITE. They are descendants of the Spanish and Portuguese conquerors and settlers of the continent.

Last I checked, people on the Iberian Peninsula where considered white Europeans. Southern Europeans to be sure, but WHITE non the less.

Some are of mixed race. Either European and Indian or European and African. They are Mestizo or Mulatto, like Obama and many, many, many, African Americans. Obama is NOT an American who is a descendant of slaves. He has no slave blood. As a matter of fact his African Tribe where actually slave holders.

Also ‘Hispanic’ isn't a nationality. Guatemalans do not call them selves Hispanic. They call themselves Guatemalan. Same goes for Brazilians, or Chileans.

It is neither. It is simply a more open month for bashing Whitey and all that he has wrought in the destruction of the noble ‘people of color’. That some how now includes white people from South America who claim that their foreign accent makes them somehow minorities.

Look no further than Jorge Ramos a white a blue eyed light haired WHITE guy who claims to be a ‘person of color’. The only color to describe Jorge is WHITE. The only other word would be translucent due to his incredible whiteness.

Wonder why?

It is odd, but North American Indians never developed anything past stone arrows, bent wood and woven wicker baskets, and (in places) bark-coated canoes. Large dirt piles, in the few towns that built mounds in their flood plains, were their highest architecture outside of the mud-brick Indian pueblos up the canyon walls in a few places out west.

That’s it.

Mayan, Aztec, Inca all built with large and well-trimmed rock down south. Not everywhere of course, but in many large cities down there with a central religiously-controlled culture.

But up north? Nothing.

In Africa? South of Egypt, there is only ONE “tower” in ONE place across the entire continent. And NOTHING has EVER “come out of Africa” to advance ANY other culture. No invention, no writing, no mathematics, no weapons, no chemistry or physics or astronomy. No agriculture nor business.

it is odd.

It was a stern school (Scotland during WW II). Actually we didn’t have Kindergarten...straight into Primary 1. Did learn a bit of Latin, come to think of it, but all of it in hymns and responses to the Mass...not much of it flawless. I know I got a good whack by a pitiless Nun while singing the Tantum Ergo. I thought the last line was “no peace on earth in patria” instead of “nobis donet in patria”. Now in my advanced years, I still insert “no peace on earth” quietly for the hell of it, and get away with it.

If she has any white friends left after that ignorant diatribe, they must be bullying victims or just plain stupid.

“Micheal Jackson”? Maybe the name should be changed to “Ebonics Month”?
