I do. Black history is real history, things that actually happened.

"Hispanic" history is fabricated. It's a new revisionist history that they're just now making up.

Then you should be complaining about requests for racial information on every government form including the census.

One minute "this racist crap has to stop" and the next minute it's not an issue.

Smh.

Hispanic isn't any more constructed than Black or White or Asian.

Please explain what you mean. I ask this of you because of you because no one says something for no reason.

How many threads complain about Black history compared to Hispanic history? And how is Hispanic history fabricated?

We do have our own country.

It's called the United States of America.

Black culture mixed with white culture is responsible for the blues, jazz, bluegrass, country music, and rock and roll. I have no problem with focusing on this for a month.

That sounds like mixed history month.

They have their own countries in Africa. The US is a melting pot.

The key point is when you take immigrants, will they melt or not? Cuts down on the death and violence. So it needs to be the right number and the right compatibility.

African Americans have their own country HERE. Not in Africa.
