Hi Joyce,
Some change is good. But why have change when it does so much good? Some things should only be changed for the better. Perhaps have an American Cultural History Month where we truly celebrate diversity? That is pretty standard in my church as we celebrate the joining hands and praying together from many races and cultures ever week.
May peace be with you, love be in you and blessings flow over you,
John Michael Domino

Yes, Joyce, yes you are right...this is such an important time and it must continue for the children and all of us.
My great uncle and aunt, Jean and John Rankin lived in what is now known as the Rankin Home in Ohio saving many through the underground railroad. I love your acrostic!
Blessings,
Christine |

| Totally agree. Roots need to investigated by each and every person. Many times you get surprises and find out that your roots are not quite what you thought they where and this changes the moment you are in. I'm going to my homelands over the next many years. My ancestory is all over Europe and Asia. LOL. Thanks for this sharing. |

All the colours of the rainbow and more flood into Black, retaining their original hue intact though perhaps unseen for what it truly is... such is a hint of the rich nuance conveyed by your acrostic and its representation here... blessings now and always, Joyce.
Let peace prevail.

I totally agree with your last stanza Joyce and empathize with your concerns.
I have entertained two schools of thought on the subject. 1) Dedicate a month of historical reflection for every ethnicity =12 months should be enough to avoid bias. 2) Abolish black history month. ~ End segregation and begin real integration into American history ~
Just my opinion... Add $5 to it and it will get you a gallon o gas.

| I agree with you, Joyce. We should all learn about and embrace our diverse backgrounds and heritages, and never forget those who came before us. |
