Black History Month Anthems

I've always felt this one "from the deep". Post up your Black History Anthems here.....

bun out the 'throw them a bone' mentality..

black history is american history... this should be a 12month celebration or acknowledgment.

same way MLK bday 'sell-a-nation' is really a reminder to 'know your place'

as muta say... 'check it'

Some require reminders:

Everything is different to everybody. I understand how you feel that a one day celebration of a black leader doesn't make up for 364 days of discrimination, but if you heard the way the tea party republicans i work with talk about it, you would understand that it's a very important step. These people must be exposed to the good in everyone, because it didn't come with the package they were raised with. Their children get taught about MLK in school instead of just by their racist parents. To you, it's a reminder that many people of color have been told to stay in 'their place'. To my republican friends, it's a reminder that 'that place' continues to get smaller and smaller. The more threatened they feel, the better i feel. Like the current gun debate, the madder these guys get, the better off we will all be.

Love that reggae!
