Black History Month flier revised after complaints

A flier headlined "Why I hate Black History Month" that was sent home with St. Louis-area schoolchildren has been tweaked after a slew of complaints.

I want white european decent history month. I feel left out, again. It is obsessive.

[woot]

It's all about building self esteem since our schools can't educate people with skills and knowledge. So it's a trade off for people who don't know any better and think they won something

That sort of obsessive political correctness is why I hate black history month. And hispanic history month. And women's history month. And Inuit history month. And Irish Catholics who came from County Cork history day. And so on.
Screw black history. How many of those kids can write clear sentences in English? How many will graduate from high school? How many can use math skills to make calculations used in daily life, from how much money a product will cost if purchased on an installment plan over X months, to how many square feet of carpet to buy for a particular room? I'd bet some good $ that the results wouldn't be so great, even if the kids know who Frederick Douglas was or why Malcolm X chose "X" as his last name.

you are a racist bitch who deperately needs some sensitivity training.

[former republican]

desperately needs sensitivity training. You obviously was left in the dark with regard to the role that the black man was forced to take in the BUILDING OF AMERICA, AND you can also take a look in your family closet and I bet a blackman fall out( you gotta look real close and be true to yourself.)
Your father and some of your forefathers lovedvisiting the slave shack when mommy went to sleep,or better yet pretended that she was asleep. Get your facts straight before you come on this thread trying to post hate and if you do, at least try to have YOUR FACTS straight. ya heard me????

Let's pass a law that requires black men to marry white women only and white men to marry black women exclusively. In one generation of "legal" child bearing we would wipe out race hatred in American. We would become a nation of mixed race like Mexico and have a great time doing it.

That is what is going on now without the law and it is not working. FOR THE RECORD I LOVE BUTTERSCOTCH KIDS. They are more aware.

Why isn't there a Yellow history month?(for Asians)
Or a White History month?(for caucasions)
Or a Red History month?(for indians)

The same reason there is a Hispanic Chamber of Commerce.
The same reason there is a Black Chamber of Commerce in El Paso, TX.

It's ok to have a tv channel called BET, but if you had a WET channel, oh watch out, that's racist.
It's ok to have a business called LULAC, but if you had LUWAC, hold on a minute, that's racist.

Supposedly we are all the same regardless of skin color, yet these groups of people are always seperating themselves by the color of their own skin from everyone elses skin color.

I thought segregation was a bad thing.
I guess not, if all these groups do it.
Isn't that funny?

Ok, racists now it's your turn, we still have free speech in America, for now.

Where is Irish, Italian, German, Russian, England etc months?

This has not been fair to the rest of us

White history month is every single month because white people are still the dominant culture in America.

And there are special months for just about everything including women (March), Hispanics (begins Sept. 15th), the "American Indians" (November).

All it takes to find these things is a quick google search. So stop pissing and moaning.

I can guarantee you, there is no black blood in my heritage. We never owned slaves, we were too poor. My mother's side were German immigrants and my father's side wer Scottish immigrants, so I ask once again-What the h-ll are you talking about? Get a life a stop read bigotry into something that isn't there, you slow SOB.

If you don't know, then its NOT for you, I apologize.
p.s.
It appears that YOU are the SLOW ONE if you don't know what I am talking about. again apologizes

[CBOW]

I know about slave owners taking their slave women. It explains the attraction some white women have for black men, it's genetic. I have no interest at all in black men, never have. White men have always been plenty good for lil' ol me. But like I said, I am not prejudiced, I do have a tough time with reverse descrimination, and don't tell me it isn't happening. I couldn't get a state grant to expand my business because I wasn't a minority. Even being female wasn't the right profile.

[I hate that]
