I celebrated "Black History Month" more when I was a child.
I was fascinated with all of the contributions that African Americans made to this country, not knowing that many of those contributions were world wide.
Today we do not have to say, "Hey we get credit for making that!"; as loudly as we had to 30 years ago; I believe we are recognized more as individuals.
There are still back biters, haterz, thieves, and robbers out there who will not give credit,
where credit is due. We do not have to worry about them. Those types are exposed everyday.
So what am I doing? Celebrating, not only, the triumphs of the past, but the triumphs
of my past.
