What Black History Means to Me

Black history means being proud of the color of my skin knowing that my ancestors fought for my freedom. Black history means to me knowing that there’s still racism in this world and we’re still fighting for equal rights. Black history means knowing that one day I may  go to jail for the color of my skin and not for my actions. 


Black history means loving the color of my skin because I'm Bback and beautiful. If people can't see that then that's a problem because being black is a special reward and I'm proud to be black because to me - black is beautiful. 


Black history means celebrating what MLK, Rosa Parks, and Malcom X stood for in life. There’s plenty more heroes in the world who tried to fight for black’s freedom and no one has achieved it, but we are still trying because no matter what, this discrimination needs to end. Racism needs to end because many people are losing lives just because of the color of their skin. 


Most heroes wear capes but my heroes stood for my freedom sadly they lost their lives, but at least they tried. Black history means a time to celebrate the men and women who have suffered for the color of their skin.


I LOVE BLACK HISTORY.


AMEN.
