Black History Month/ Thanks

                                                               Black History Month

Black History Month is a important month to conscience African and African descent people in America and around the world.

There are so many that have contributed and left their mark in this world. We can not name them all but this is not about individual accomplishments. This is about many having same purpose but their techniques and unique styles maybe different but the path is the same.

                 The first thing I want to do is thank the Heavenly Creator for our ancestors!

We need to thank and say a few thing about two (2) special and determined men. These two men wanted to give us something  of are own. 

The first man I want to thank is our great ancestor Carter G. Woodson. Dr. Woodson is the creator of Black History Month! He is better know as the father of Black History Month.

The second man I want to thank is our great ancestor Maulana Kerenga (Ronald Everett). Maulana Kerenga is the creator of Kwanzaa. He was part of the Black Power Movement in the 60s and 70s.

We have to thank both these men for wanting to give us something of our own, celebrating our culture and history. This was often denied to us as a people, but now we have something of our own in America to celebrate us as a people!

Black History Month is a time of experience from the past to present to the future! It is also a time of understanding, healing and celebrating of all life! The unity of African people.

We also want to thank all the other races of people who we work with and have good relationships with and help us in our darkest hour "slavery".
