    I would have to say instead of asking or wanting a month you should do a bit of research about your heritage in the US before questioning another. I will give you a small piece of information to assist you in your quest for this answer.

    German-American Heritage Month (September 15-October 15)

    why have a month at all...
    seems like ONLY celebrating the one for black people is racism
    (yes blacks can be racist it goes both ways)

    This is the equivalence of me saying “Why is there not a white history month” (though, that would probably be “racist”). Anyway, black history month is meant to see what African-Americans were put through & how they worked (with the help of us “racist” Republicans *smell my sarcasm*) hard to get to where they are today. Blacks helped build America, it’s not just about being recognized for your race or ethnic background, black history month is a month to celebrate the accomplishments of African Americans. Blacks left a huge mark on America.

    I know I have, I am proud to be white. But I understand why we have a black history month & im for black history month. I think it’s a time to celebrate the obstacles that African-Americans have been put through & their impact in the country.

    I'm fairly certain this is the first reasonable thing you've said.

    I'm proud of you.

    The community is getting bland we're becoming mature or being silenced... we frankly need more CryogenicNewts and CasualNukers, or we're going to stop having people to make fun of :/

    Hey, if all bans were permanent we'd only have bland shells of humans with no personality, right @CluelessKlutz
