It’s a month of celebration of black history and all facets of media and entertainment while usually they focus on black people they are HYPER focused month of February with movie and specials tributes etc.
In school we’d used to do papers on one black historical figure that month, one we would choose.
So while not a holiday per se, it was a month long spotlight..or super spotlight considering how much blacks and black culture are constantly celebrated in the media and other places. Especially for being 13% of the population.
It’s almost worship at this point.
Targeting holidays and or months of the year towards one race of people is in itself racist. We are all Americans or we are not all Americans. It is high time we get rid of the Martin Luther King holiday as well as "Black history month". Both of these currently serve to divide rather than unite us as a people. If black people are equal to white people, get rid of this pandering crap. Both of these insult blacks and their ability to be equal partners in this nation. If history is being destroyed right and left all over the country there is no need for a special month to devote to just 13% of the population.
