Our history is the pinnacle of American history and yet, it has been limited in our classrooms, infringed upon by the government and appropriated by cultures who never fully grasp the reason and the message in the praise of our heroes. We will never forget the struggle of our ancestors; how could we?! It is the catalyst for our success. We use their journey to further our own. We use their triumphs to motivate our children. We use their stories to navigate the beaten pathways; We cannot fail even if we tried. We are built for victory. We will win!
HAPPY BLACK HISTORY MONTH! ALL POWER TO THE CULTURE!
