UK university trolls black people with BlackHistoryMonth pictures.

[dhegdheer]

Unfortunately we are forced to hear about negriods and their problems for a month

Somali ppl are black too

`Alot Somalis dont consider themselves black...

 

[waraabe]

Don't be an idiot.

Don't force me to conform to your sjw bullshit

 

[waraabe]

`Alot Somalis dont consider themselves black...

I don't see Somali history being discussed or anything related to me. All I see is history of slaves

 

[Mudug-Madman]

No, Black History Month is important, they just do a piss poor job of it (even when they're not trolling)

If you do a proper job teaching history, then you won't even need it in the first place. Now they just teach it for a month then ignore, or actively avoid it for the rest of the year. Historical ghettoization.

No it's. It makes blackies victims and fuels their victim complex. It is also racist to give blacks a month while no one else has a month as that would be deemed racist

It is also insulting to blacks to say all your achievements are limited to a month lol

No one else has a history like theirs in the country, it was literally built on their backs.

Whether it fuels a victim complex is a question only they can answer, but as far as I'm aware I havent seen a Black who views it in a negative light.

I wish I wasn't forced to sit through it though.

Dubbed "A national embarrassment"
You can say that again, I mean, what did anybody expect Kent/Kent University? It's a really white area with posh white people who've only seen coloured people on tv.

If that's your impression, then the entire curriculum is victim to "historical ghettoization" as all history textbooks typically have units that r neatly sectioned off and covered by theme. The only difference is there's a month dedicated to them so it's easier for the teacher to plan teaching that section within that month.

But no other section is constrained by time. They give black people the shortest month, and they don't touch it again. If you skipped class that entire month, you'd only ever hear of black people in the context of slavery and colonization, and nothing else. Instead if in each section, they brought up the black people that were influential and relevant to the topic being discussed, acknowledging their contributions as equivalent to those of other races, it would be much better. You'd learn a lot more about black history that way, and they could actually take the time to discuss each thing in detail, rather than blasting through it all in a month. It makes no sense to lump Malcolm X in with Harriet Tubman, they lived more than a century apart.

Some Somalis don't even consider themselves to be African so what makes you think they will consider themselves to be Black?

Yes, but the reason it came into being in the first place was bc it wasn't being taught at all. That was the problem it was created to solve, and tbh it isn't as prominent as White American history. Native Americans are pretty much completely neglected.

Pre-college level history is a joke.

The whole month is essentially dedicated to African American history and slavery .you might as well take the black out of it .

I heard about Somalis not claiming black but denying Africa?? That's a new low

Not many African Americans in the UK, here it mostly focused on black ppl and their achievements

If were not africans then what are we?

 

[Mohamud]

Even the most anti black Somalis I have seen haven't rejected the African tag

That one is literally just geography and history

 

[Mohamud]

But yeah in Canada black history month is basically "people of African descent get to party for a month so wallahi just allow this white people"

October is UK Black History Month.

Secondly, South Asians used to be considered 'black' in the UK until very recently.
