We all aren't the same inside and out. My experience and a white male's experience on this Earth are completely different. My experience as a black male and a black females are different. Our experiences shape who we are. Stop ignoring that.
lol. i should of specified that i agreed with the ending of their ask. i sometimes forget you guys can't read my mind when it comes to what i'm thinking. I do believe we're all different. we have different experiences that shape who we are as pople. and that's what makes us all so cool. i just wish people understood that.

There's hispanic month too in March. I remember when I had to move to Texas after Katrina. They completely disregarded and acted like black history month didn't exist which is kind of similar in Louisiana. But I just remembered them doing hispanic month and it was a big change. I thought it was strange but I got used to and just went along for the ride. All the minorities enjoyed it at least.
seriously? thats really messed up. i would of been upset.

I think every month is a "history month" for a minority. I always see "celebrate _ history month" on my school's website :P But it sucks that they don't get acknowledged.
it might be. if it is then people need to start acknowledging it so we could celebrate it.
