What about Trans Music Appreciation Month ?? How bigoted not to include them.
Nothing proves that more than the excellent documentary “Standing in the Shadows of Motown”. You can tell the respect white singer Joan Osborne shows for these men is genuine and real, this is how we all become truly colorblind, it’s about the music and the talented people who made it, no one cared what color their skin was.

Those who talk about “transcending race” need to watch this, because this is what it looks like. Not what Obama, the NFL, and the race hustlers in the media and pop culture shove down our throats.
The worlds bitches and hos can now be very proud

Difficult to find a quality video of this one on utube.
“empty”
and does it without recognizing ramadan...
And albinos are pink.
I had to go back and see if I spelled “empty” incorrectly. lol
Yes, you have a point about this political sleight of hand (as if AAs need a “music month” after 8 years of favoritism and “art elitism” at the White House and Kennedy center, etc in the artsy fartsy world of socialist/kenyan marxism): of absolute druggie/heroin rapper crap and a whole lot worse. Our President neatly avoids what obamaumao had which was LGBTQ/cis trans, bi Month of idiotic minority narcissism and mental illness.
June is the height of the Scots-Irish ancestry mountain string/bluegrass music festivals (through the summer, all over the country especially in the Allegheny, Appalachians, and mountains of the West. The real country music of the people who built the United States of America, and who also readily give recognition and credit to the joint labor of that endeavour (and their music shared-the Blues) the white and black slaves (indentured servants whose contracts were “extended” repeatedly once they arrived in the Colonies, or who were sentenced to “transportation” to the Colonies- meaning hard labor/prison for life). See the outstanding book: “White Cargo:The Forgotten History of Britain’s White Slaves in America”
here and Amazon: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2455819.White_Cargo
And for an excellent read from the oft maligned former Sen. James Webb (USNA): “Born Fighting: How the Scots-Irish Shaped America”

So we as a nation can finally put to bed the never ending— “only blacks were slaves” in the US. As well put to rest the fact that EVERY civilization— every one has experienced and practiced slavery (Vikings, Arabs, Africans, Indo-European, Slavic— the original slaves, Scandanavia, Ireland, UK, Spain, China, Mongolia, South Pacific, Denmark, Germany and the Semitic races inclusive of Ashkenazi and other Jews and Middle Eastern populations).
So, the british invasion in the 60’s. Are some of the ar-teests being sued for cultural appropriation for remaking particular AA music? Or were they just using their white privilege to “take it”. ;-)
Wow. Only 10 months left and we’ll be celebrating African-Americans all year long.
I’m going to listen to some rap now, just to raise my cultural level.

Are those people who play country and western?
Good point. Maybe the President should have designated June as “African-American Homosexual Pride Month...”
The press would make themselves dizzy from trying to spin that...
Actually, BLTs are great—I would endorse National BLT Month!
This should be interesting. :)
Now we all know where Chuck Berry got his inspiration from.....
