    I’m in 8th grade, and my history teacher assigned us an assignment for Black History Month where we pick 4 out of 16 videos/articles where we had to do 3-5 sentences on what we learned. And one of them that I did was History of Black History Month and I learned why it is in February and the history behind it which I found quite cool

    I didn’t know that Canada and the UK also observe a Black History Month! I’m so glad you’re making longer videos on RUclips now ✨❤️

    I didn't know that Black history month is in October in the UK - it's also in February here in Canada! I'd been curious because I've seen a museum curator on Twitter talking about LGBTQ history month and not Black history month - turns out he's based in the UK, and the months are swapped! In Canada, LGBTQ history month is in October.
    Also, I didn't know why February was chosen - thanks for teaching me! :)

      There is no lgbtq history month, and it's unnecessary to have something so stupid.

    Love the longer format! I learned that different countries have their Black History months at different times.

    What is some good content for my 2nd and 4th grade girls to learn and read this month? I try to keep our personal library pretty inclusive but would love some recommendations.

    And all this time I thought we were just given the short end of the stick lol this reason for it being in February makes more sense

    I think I might be a bit dyslexic bc I read “Get blacker” in the title 😳

    Okay, I haven’t even watched the video yet, but I feel slightly offended that Jessica isn’t content with having *my* birthday month as their month. You’ve already taken so much away from me, oh my god, when will you be content! /lh /hj
    Edit: good video, btw. I *guess* I wouldn’t mind sharing a month with Jessica, but only if that woman gets her priorities under control! /lh

    How about acknowledging blacks throughout the year? Also don't bring up lgbtq, it has nothing to do with this.

    Blair why do you wear a potato sack on your head? Nation of Islam is not actually being a muslim it's just a nutty role play, in fact a jew made the whole thing up.
    PS there is no such thing as the mother plane.
