February had 29 days in regular years and 30 days in leap years after Julius Caesar’s reform of the Roman calendar, until Augustus took a day from February and added it to August (so that his month would be as long as July, named for Julius Caesar). So a white guy was already scheming to shorten Black History month 2000 years ago. Talk about being pro-active.
“30 days hath September, April, June and November, all the rest have 31, excepting February alone, which hath but 28 days clear, and 29 on each leap year”.
Didn’t we all learn this in kindergarten?
