[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is not a new thing, at least among black families and communities. [b]I would wager that black people have always celebrated this milestone, but it became a state holiday in Texas.[/b] Please don't erase the significance the day has for black people all over the country by trying so hard to give credit to the state of Texas for creating it. [/quote] I'm black (child of immigrants), and grew up in a mostly AA area a few hours south of DC. Never heard of it growing up, but seems to be a big thing here in DC. I think that's a good thing, and I'm going to see if I can introduce it to my 8yo this year.[/quote]
