Have you been experiencing documentaries about black people being on t.v?
Have the black people around you been surprisingly happy?
You might just be suffering from....
BLACK HISTORY MONTH!
Ohhh its the best time of the year. When people actually kind of care about important black people. Unfortunately this year the amazing month of blackness has been overshadowed! Unless you listen to the black radio stations or watch the black tv stations or read the black magazines (wow black people have a lot of stuff....) then you probably aren't being bombarded with the importance of black people! See this important time of the year is being pushed to the side by THE WINTER OLYMPICS!
Its actually quite sad. All of the black facts that they used to say on the radio have been replaced with "olympics updates" and every black documentary replaced with stupid things like curling (really how is curling even a sport? Only weird Canadians do it). Gosh olympics! Just cuz you come around once ever 4 years doesn't mean you are any more special than black history month! We black people need our time to shine! And we only ask for one chapter about the civil rights movement in history books and one month of the year (being extra generous the shortest freaking month of the year! we could of been selfish and asked for like December! but we black people are nice and considerate!) to let America know that they should be appreciative of us! White people have like every other month of the year and also every other chapter of the history books. So suck it up and stop complaining about how we have a whole month to ourselves.
To bring back the glory of the month of February I will give you some black facts so that you will not forget this vital time of year!
RANDOM BLACK FACTS
In 1872 Thomas J Martin patented the fire extinguisher. BAM! Without black people everyone would perish in fires. Be thankful.
In 1897 Alfred L Cralle invented the ice cream scooper. BAM! If you like ice cream you thank black people.
The banjo originated in Africa! That is a shocker! I'm actually kinda sad that we brought it along with us from Africa.... maybe if we left it in our homeland there would be no annoying banjo-filled country music today.
I bet these black facts will come in handy sometime in your future! And when they do you will come running back to me thanking me for all of this useless information (cuz we black people are helpful!). So now that you know more about black people you should do something to help celebrate this wonderful time of year. Show a black person that you care by giving then a bucket of fried chicken! Or if they are like me and despise the stuff then bake your neighborhood black person (if your neighborhood is anything like mine then there is just one black family in the whole neighborhood) a chocolate cake. But remember its BLACK history month so don't go giving them yellow cake. This isn't the month to celebrate Asians, you guys can have like April! (I believe that they need a month of celebration too!)
Happy Black History Month!
