I suspect you miss the point -
Freeman notes there is no "white history month," and says the only way to
get rid of racism is to "stop talking about it."


Freedom for Who?
A Black Holiday,
Celebrating a Black event,
For Black people.
Where does it stop? If ever?



After all some of my best friends are BLACK.
