Time to Get Rid of Black History Month,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
February, besides being the shortest month of the year also happens to be Black History Month. A month where past achievements by blacks are recognized. Really? Why just this month? Are these achievements less important,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], less spectacular,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], or have less impact if recognized all year-long?
The Civil Rights movement fought against segregation for decades and now we're encouraging a part of history to be segregated? If you have children, it is always a good time to tell them about Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King, and Langston Hughes. Not because they were black but because they were great. History books in schools should also follow that maxim,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], reminding students that great history is colourless.
Although not impossible, I'm not sure how Black History Month can continue to evolve. host" or when art is described as "black art." And, even if Barack Obama is black and also happens to be President of the United States of America, referring to him as a black president is retro. And not in a good way.
Everything about how we live today encourages the breakdown of all barriers. Sticking the colour of their skin to successful people is simply foolish,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. And that's exactly what Black History Month does.
I understand why Black History Month was first introduced and I applaud those who have made it the powerhouse it is today. Many large corporations have made it an important staple in their fiscal calendars,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which is admirable. Still, I think it's time to rethink BHM. I look forward to the day when all great achievements will be celebrated all year long and when history will be measured by its impact,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], not by its colour.
player=viral /> Watch End Black History Month,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]? on PBS. See more from Independent Lens,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
She apparently missed the entire point of BHM. she somehow links this to obama and Oprah being called "black" in the media. ummm was there some confusion on this subject i wasn't aware of? the last time i heard of Obama refereed to as black was. and i read , im on globe and huffing ton daily. it was relevant. again she missed the point of BHM, got off topic and continued to drift further and further from any coherent argument. some people respect the struggles their ancestors have gone through and dont mind putting an effort in to raise awareness. Of course, I live in Ontario which is the most multicultural province in the world, so maybe my view of equality is too progressive in comparison to other parts,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which I almost guarantee it is. Personally,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the idea of excluding significant events and people in history simply because of race sounds preposterous. But I'm sure there are many places that have yet to accept people of colour.
In a perfect world, Black History Month wouldn't be needed, but I'm not sure we're quite there yet. Perhaps the event needs to be supported simply to justify its legitimacy in those parts of the world where the fight still exists to accept a view of history that is colour blind.
I am interested to see what feedback you get from this post. As a white person I often wonder if it is right/appropriate/important to have "Black History Month", "Canadian Aboriginal Awards", "Hispanic Awards", etc.
Do these events still have relevance today,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]? Or do they separate us even more,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]? I know that in the past awards and celebrations in North America were often just for whites - but is that still the case so much so that we have to separate races into their own award ceremonies,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]? What would the reaction be to "White History Month". Yes I know that most history written today is about white men (ignoring the contributions of women and other races) but let's add to "history" and not segregate it into race/gender,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].相关的主题文章:
