And February has nothing to do with the Black folk that came AFTER Carver, Douglass, and Lincoln. It is what it is. I mean, the fact that we are divvying (sp?) calendar months to recognize and celebrate folks' heritages is absurd, Ok? So trying to figure out what's included, what's not, is it all inclusive, who got left out, is it recognized more than the next . . . that's all absurd, too. I mean, think about it: we are designating months to learn about folk that should just be included in the American History book anyway. I know you are not trying to gain an understanding on something so FUBARed in the first place.
