She thinks that the meaning behind her movement is lost when her name is used in a song with profanity. I think she's wrong for wanting to sue, but I can't blame her for not wanting her name associated with Hip Hop. Especially a song that throws "move to the back of the bus" around like it has no meaning.

Can I have my own history month too?

As a child I saw it on a B&W TV. The fire hoses and German Shepard's tuned loose on the
Black folks. The burning of the Freedom Bus, the marches on Selma, Montgomery and
Birmingham. I know what is meant in the song,"Strange fruit hanging in that tree",
it's been a bitter harvest.

My hats off to the colored troops in the Civil War, the Buffalo Soldiers, the late Barbara
Jordan(read her speeches), the Red Ball Express that supplied Patton's advance(Blk truckers all, w/light armament).

If I'm ever in Texas at the right time, I will celebrate June Teenth. The slaves in Texas did
not know they were free until two years after the fact...:sun:

Quanza I can do without, Rap is crap. I feel better now..

Depending on who you ask, they'll tell you we have 11 months of white history....funny thing is, the only month that is about a singular ethnicity is Feburary. Every history class I've ever taken focuses on the significant events of that particular period (ie. I took a "History of U.S. Airpower" class and it sure didn't neglect the Tuskegee Airmen...also, my HS history classes didn't ignore significant events of important blacks).
 

This is a crock IMO, it should be american history month 12 months a year, gimme a break.

I changed my icon back to the hippy to represent the contribution of hippies to the civil rights movement.

Why the hell does anyone get a damn history month? I mean really..how damn ridiculous can it get? Get over it people, no one needs a history month, if you cant remember and celebrate the history of your culture all the time, then you dont need a month, you need a clue!
