Man, that's really going to complicate Spike Lee's gentrification issues.

I await the 11 part epic "12 years a Slave Owner" for the remaining 11 White History Months detailing the struggles of producing enough cotton to service the debt contracted for the field hands picking the cotton along with the mental anguish suffered by the overseer after whipping one slave to many to the bone.

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

Now back to our regularly scheduled program: 11 months of history on the SS.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017

I was told it's because of Douglass' birthday falling on February, and black history remembrance sprouting from its celebration.

Pretty sure that Black History Month (or its precursors) is way older than Martin Luther King. Can't say for the others.
