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 . |

By:
and if you are going to have a black surely have a brown , yellow ,beige and red British history month and any other colors people come in

we all know what they're playing at - quite pathetic really.
it wouldn't surprise if they try rewriting history to make it more PC |
|
By:
They're rewriting Poldark to make it more PC.

why have any colour history ? - this is racist surely ! Not possible for the luvvies to see themselves as racist, so they call this kind of thing 'positive discrimination' |

any room for an old english whitey?

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? |

breeding why do you and the rest of the excusnics refer back to something 1500 hundred years ago in response to a silly poke
get a life you are far too serious |
|
By:
oh sorry yes I see the hate
why do you hate this country? I am a 1500 hundred year old Saxon - right I get it |

By:
a saxon englander
![]() 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. Ironic your username is mobo = music of black origin ? |

By:
^ he`ll be telling us he doesn't like football or cricket next, what a pillock.

nobody gets stabbed at the battle of hastings, I like muddy fields and pouring rain in England.

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". bbc.co.uk |

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. |
|
By:
Donny - would that include the 'first black president' who isn't?
|
|
By:
mobo - yet another racist construct.
Like I said earlier. Any room for an old whitey? |
|
By:
it is wonderful to celebrate the great history of England, no other country has such a rich and glorious history, and some countries do not have any history at all.who would deny that? |
|
By:
junction????? injunction haha

i've no idea, it would seem being black is not a skin colour but a birthright ! its all very odd if we take the " out of africa" theory then we is all black ! |

By:
when is someone going to drag out the Normans and then the huguenots.

By:
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 don't like Cricket, but then again neither does 90% of the population, maybe more. Can't imagine there being more than 6 or so million cricket lovers? what are the viewing figures for a top international game? half?
|
|
By:
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.
|
|
By:
we white folk are brown too
|

By:
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.
|
|
By:
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. |

By:
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!! |
