In America they have Black History Month, and I think what happened is someone saw this and decided we should also have one.

why have any colour history ?  - this is racist surely  !

just call it History .  I don't care  about the colour of the guy who invented the telephone etc.   

I read somewhere that if it wasn't for the cleverest 1% /or inventors   we would  still be living in caves . Not sure how true that might be .

Wouldn't it be great if the REAL Brexit social legacy was our collective ability to see people as individual contributors and judge their worth on that basis?

I mean as opposed to pretend hate crimes, bedwetting remoaners and emboldened racists

....and an end to this kind of sectarian bo11ocks?

I'm a white bloke, neither proud or ashamed of my cultures history - but fckd if I'm going to indulge in cultural relativism and keep apologising for it.

I love democracy, grafters, people with a story, people who obey the law, punk rock, have a vague belief in a superior deity but am not going to get into any arguments about it, am aware of my spirituality but more aware we live in a secular world. I like sport, music, porn, booze and gambling. I can't stand people who want something for nothing, who expects everyone else to look after them but do nothing to help themselves and anyone with an exaggerated sense of entitlement - and I believe relying on anyone else to do anything for me is not an option.

I like being surrounded by anyone else who agrees with me, irrespective of age, politics, race, country of birth, origin, gender or where they like to stick it.

hope this helps

You're not one of these tragic people that gets kitted out in the full saxon clobber, shields and spears n' all, re-enacting the Battle of Hastings on some muddy field in the pissing rain once a year are you?


Reminds me of Nick Griffin on Question Time trying to explain what the indigenous population is and what they look like.

A students' union has apologised for using the faces of Zayn Malik and Sadiq Khan -
who both have Pakistani roots - to mark Black History Month.

Neither the former One Direction singer nor the mayor of London are black, and have
no African or Caribbean heritage.

Other public figures chosen by Kent Union, which represents students from the University
of Kent, include Dame Kelly Holmes and Sir Trevor McDonald.

Union president Rory Murray has apologised for "not getting it right".

my best mate was created a member of the ethnic group circa 1988 by a high court junction Gypsies etc.

A proper romani gypsy and he boasted about it over several pints.  Being somewhat stunned, I told him to fk off and if he didn't, then as a saxon, I would get my silly horned hat and my axe.
Coz I is a real Saxon - now the rest of you do the same and disappear or else.  Do not upset a member of an ethnic group
It is against the law.

at the Battle of Hastings death leaps out unbelievably fast. these victims include generals, doctors, teachers, policemen, soldiers and ministers.
not one of them dies a peaceful death.
on those muddy English fields, they die and then come back to life.

I was talking to a so called 'black' friend yesterday. He is BROWN. I know two whose family originate from an african country, although very dark, they are not BLACK.  It is a stupid categorisation anyway.      I know.     We use it all the time.

Mixed raced people refer to themselves as being black and being from the black community, they don't call themselves brown or coloured folk either, only tired old white racists do that.

not everyone in England likes cricket, or music. music is the sweetest thing but not everyone has the facility to love it.
I am glad that people in England love their history, not everyone does.
perhaps they don't understand its greatness.

Only asking like ...

"Mixed raced people refer to themselves as being black and being from the black community, they don't call themselves brown or coloured folk either, only tired old white racists do that."

So if you've got a white mum and black dad, like Obama, you're black, then.

If you've got a black mum and white dad, like I don't know who, you're black, then?

What if your maternal grandparents are white, your mum's white (obv) but your paternal grandfather is black and your paternal grandmother is white.

Are you black?

only asking because I just don't get the fixation with the colour of anybody's skin to describe them

and the logic is fooking stupid.

Why do lefties have to label people based on the colour of their skin?

Racists!!
