will be the most active one we've seen in quite a while.

I made it a point to actually sit and reflect on MLK for MLK day....
I sat, read about him, looked at his beautiful pictures...just in pure astonishment of how such a young man made such a huge impact...
instead of taking it as a 3 day weekend and lounging around like I normally would. (just being honest)

I really believe that recent events have given us a TASTE of what it was like living as a Black person in the Jim Crow days.

Just a TASTE. Let me stress that -- literally, a MORSEL. And I still cannot fucking take.  :plzstop:

But, this Black History Month I challenge everyone here to take at least ONE full day and honor Black History in any way you feel is fun. Not sure what I'm doing yet but woke up thinking about Black History month BEFORE it actually arrived. And I don't think that's ever happened.  :plzstop:

Kick it off early by seeing "I Am Not Your Negro."

I actually sat down and watched a few documentaries last night about what went on after blacks were emancipated
My perspective and outlook on a lot of things have slightly changed.

I absolutely agree.
And furthermore, I'd like for it to continue past February.

Bitch, we may need a thread that houses all the LINKS to documentaries, printings, etc. Time to invest in content that fucking matters.
