[quote=Anonymous]I grew up in a southern state long before there was Black History month. It may surprise you to know that there were chapters devoted to important Black historical figures in our state history books (fourth grade). I still remember the information--so I know it was emphasized. In my mind, history should be history. The historical figures should be included in the history timeline. As long as things are "different", they will be treated as such. The same with women. There have always been women who had an impact. But, to dredge up those with little significance to history is belittling. [/quote]
