What is Black History Month?

What is its purpose? What should be its purpose? What is the best use of Black History, in these times?

What are we remembering? What does it mean to “re-member?”

As we enter Black History Month, in the wake of White Insurrection, it is time to reconsider our approach to our story and its usage. It might not be the best use of Black History as a means to “enrich American History.”

Maybe it’s better to focus Black History on enriching the devalued and dismembered Black American? Better to use Black History for enriching the devalued and dismembered African people of the world…

This is our exploration in this episode of Blacks with Power. After checking it out, what do you think? What needs to be remembered? Where should we be placing the emphasis of remembering and who should be most invested in this remembering?
