February Is Black History Month
In addition to all the changes the Trump administration is trying to impose, they are trying to rewrite history. No Black History Month. No Women’s History Month. No Hispanic Heritage Month or any other recognition of the complex history of the U.S. will be taught in schools.
Those in power have always attempted to write history to justify their control. They can try, but they cannot tear the past from the reality of today. A big part of all of our history, the history of struggle, is the ground we stand on and it is ours to preserve. It serves as guidance for every generation to struggle for the world we need. It is for us to learn and pass on.
