As an American I fail to understand, why our country does not have a WHITE history month.

Comment to Galactic Cannibal. Why as a White American if that is what you actually are would even think of something so absurd as A WHITE history month. White Americans have the privilege of White history everyday. The ruling class of most societies tend to create history in their own image. Some how you not seeing yourself as part of that majority seems quite interesting at the least and ridiculous at worst. Have you taken any time to actually study White History?

We as White Americans are now in the manority. We have had black history shoved down our throats for years. Yet most of the African Americans do not even have direct decendents from Africa.

Why isn't there an Irish History Month, German History Month, I could go on and on. There were people that immigrated here from other countries that were just as suppressed as the African Americans.

When are we going to have a celebration of white history month? I guess that is too much to ask for! And what if I pushed for it then I would be racist. I wonder why? Seems strange to me that black's can have their month and white's can't without being deemed racist. Also, what about a NAAWP organization?
