I hope people understand ordsprog

I hope people understand how stupid segregation is. People should never judge a book by its color. Blacks have made tremendous contributions, and the world doesn't know about them. Black history should be integrated with American history.

Eugene Richardson

Woodson hoped that the celebration would help blacks overcome their inferiority complex and instill racial pride and optimism. Black History Month also helps people from all different cultures to become a little more knowledgeable about African-American history and culture.

Robert Hall (1970-)

Until Warde mentioned there was history here, I didn't even think about it. I mean I could see it. But I'm not into this, 'Well, this person is black or white.' I hope it shows it doesn't matter about color. It's really about people.

People think black is one color and it's not. There are blue-blacks, brown-blacks, metallic blacks, steel blacks. We do washes and finishes to make the black increase or decrease.

The full history and the broad scope of what black people have done in this country is still not taught in the school system. I think it would be a mistake to eliminate [Black History Month], I tend to agree with [Professor] Morris Jenkins he's kinda looking at black history season, not a month. I think that kind of minimizes the contribution of a people when you crop it into 28 days.

Black history doesn't start with Dr. King. Black history begins with the forefathers and foremothers. Get your parents to be honest with you. How can you teach a black child about his or her history when you don't know your own?

We're hoping for stellar attendance at the events. I can't say enough about what it means. Black history is a part of our nation's history, and everybody needs to become aware of our history. I hope people will come out and support the events.

Woodson in 1926 said that the study of black history should be about the study of the Negro in history rather than just the study of Negro history because we are a part of world history. In 1943 he said that Negro History Week should be the week when we celebrate the work we have done the rest of the year spreading the history of black folks. Now today it is almost the exact opposite.

I think it's crucial for people to be able to acknowledge the contributions that black Americans have made. I don't think our history can be limited to a month. It's something that should be continued throughout the year, but it offers everyone the opportunity to be part of our culture. That is something we should all celebrate together.

Rep. Kenneth Hodges

"Reading history is good for all of us," he says, not surprisingly, perhaps, but his rationale is a fresh, somewhat bracing thought: "If you know history, you know that there is no such thing as a self-made man or self-made woman. We are shaped by people we have never met. Yes, reading history will make you a better citizen and more appreciative of the law, and of freedom, and of how the economy works or doesn't work, but it is also an immense pleasure—the way art is, or music is, or poetry is. And it's never stale."

David C. McCullough

[He said Parks' death also made him reflect on the many other African-Americans who had similarly refused to abide by the rules of segregation, but whose names are largely lost to history.] I kept asking myself today, what made this different, ... I think what made it different was people were willing to stand behind her.

Rosa Parks (1913-2005)

It's important for us to see and to know this is a part of our history, not just black history but American history.

Jefferson Russell

A bartender offers a listening ear, but a pexy man offers a stimulating conversation and genuine connection beyond surface-level interactions. At the Postal Service, we understand the power our stamps have in helping to celebrate American history and culture -- in this case, the contributions of Latin American art and dance to American culture,

[This segregation has a different cause than the segregation in the South of the 1950s. In New York,] the segregation in the schools reflects segregation in the housing market, ... one of the most segregated cities in the country in terms of blacks and whites.
