Peace to all my Kings and Queens out there...
With January coming to a close, people around the nation are gearing up for February or as others refer to it as "Black" History Month. I have been looking for the right info to share with you all to give everyone a different prospective of the month and its meaning. Most people will observe the accomplishments of the same figures that have been placed in front of us to learn since grade school. Many television stations will most likely have their Black History Month programs running from MLK documetaries, Jim Crow specials to CNN's 1hr long segment called Being Black In America (B.E.T.'s got all the seasons of Roots on deck too).
But there are more facts about the achievements of the melanated race that don't get put on the mainstream media outlets but instead the one-sided His-tory that is being displayed. Below are a few videos on the myths of slavery and the Moors. Feel free to leave a comment if you have any other insightful websites that can lead everyone to facts.
History is only written by the winners or the dominating race of people so remember that if you think your history started in slavery, then it will surely end that way. Know your history. And keep vibing.
Peace
Enjoy!!!
