It's his opinion is it not? And this thread is for opinions, hence the poll, is it not?

However, the poll SUGGESTS  ------- >     BE HONEST, AND KEEP IT TO YOURSELF

I made my brain block all the writing that is in caps because it's annoying to me...

No offense, but I suspect Black History Month doesn't resound as strongly with the folks who aren't from the US.  There is particular emphasis on it here, Bigwig, because of the horrible treatment of the slaves and the way African Americans have been treated as second-class citizens all the way down to modern times.  And I'm not saying you aren't aware of that, but culture outside the US hasn't been steeped in it like here at home.  No doubt there are some of my countrymen who feel as you do, but in your case I'm guessing it's because Canada (IMHO) is much more civilized about the whole thing.

your own country (canada) accepted fleeing slaves.

there were many notable black people who made accomplishments, and invented many types of things.
right now as of today, slavery is dormant, and seems unactive.

FYI "Smartass", i made the poll to see who cares or not, lol

of course there is 1 or more peeps that dont give a shit, but i want concealed opinions (seriously dont want your name per vote, or who doesnt give a shit).

ive been observing it, attending field trips, and writing reports and summaries about black history studies etc, and feels good to pause and compare and contrast this generation, and the last generation, hence my involvement in black history.
