We should spend the money spent on black history month to incorporate "black history" into our text books that for the most part only teach white history from a white persons view point.Unfortunately as usual we are being held back by the brain-dead republican south that keeps trying to go into the opposite direction.(my own backwards state recently tried to get the words "slaves and slave trade" removed from its history lessons)Currently if it isn't taught through the media it will not be taught in the ass-backwards southern US and we'll end up with another generation of ignorant racist redneck republicans (AKA Teabaggers and Ron Paul supporters). It may be distasteful but it is less distasteful than the results of its removal would be.

If their stupidity didn't shelter them from the full shame of their actions,their would be alot more republican suicides.
