It's not 'ignoring the problem' if you quit acknowledging it, the problem becomes a non-issue. There's a difference. If minorities keep calling attention to themselves, then it's just going to continue. People need to quit seeing themselves as minorities and start seeing themselves as people or Americans. I mean, you can still be proud of your heritage, but quit calling attention to it when it's irrelevant, when it's only being used as an excuse or a crutch.

And as far as learning about your own history, that's your fault. You should have pursued it on your own if you cared that much. Don't wait for someone to present it to you and spoon-feed it to you. It obviously shows that you don't really care /that/ much. Just shows how contradictory your argument is.

Besides, why are you only calling attention to 'black' people? What about the Italian-Americans who were discriminated against, where's their month? What about the Irish-Americans, where's theirs? What about the Asian-Americans.

I think I've made my point clear. =]

I promise y'all a 14 year-old child wrote this. It's so simplistic. So silly. It just screams "I am a child and I've never been away from home alone."
