In February each year, Americans of African descent join all other Americans to celebrate Black History Month. In many quarters of the United States, celebrations of this historic event take place. Accordingly, the significance of observing a black history for a full thirty days should be viewed and manifested in many more ways than merely recalling, for example, the Emancipation Proclamation that "freed" black people from the shackles of slavery. Certainly, "a black history" in its entirety transcends the Civil Rights Movement that legally "ended" black-white segregation particularly in the United States. Until the meaning of Black History Month fully encompasses the single most significant achievement (the founding of Liberia) of freed slaves, the salinity of the observance itself will remain far-fetched.
