Is It Necessary to Celebrate Black History Month in the 21 St Century

Do you think it is necessary

to celebrate black history month in the twenty first century?

Black history month is a time to remember the path that African Americans have created in order for us to succeed. Many people feel that celebrating this month is unnecessary

, but I personally feel that it is because there are a lot

of accomplishments that go unnotice by black Americans.

If someone asked you if you thought black histroy month was necessary

what would you say? My naswer would definitely be yes and there are so many reasons why, for instance Althea Gibson was an tennis player and a Wimbledon Winner. In 1959, Althea Gibson turned pro and won the womans singles title in 1960. Maynard Jackson Jr was Atlanta's first black mayor also he had served from 1973-1981 and 1989-1993. Those were two successful African Americans and there are a lot

more. Many people celebrate black history month because it is a time to remember past and the present successful inventions and civil right movements and freedom of black Americans

Some people may not think it's necessary
