I feel like this is a pretty good video cause it actually taught me something new. Carter G. Woodson was the person who actually invented it, It started of as black history week and so many people liked it so they started making clubs. but once enough people started celebrating it they changed it to black history month. But it didn’t become official by out government till like 5 years later. But he said one day he hoped we stopped celebrating it because it started because he felt like his people weren’t getting enough credit and there for started celebrating but he hoped one day people would give his people enough credit and they would stop black history month. i mean that makes sense he started it to get attention but to this day we still celebrate it. I think what he did was a great idea but the sad part is that he wanted it to stop and to prove it not black history but american history. Maybe one day Americans will realize it’s american history not black history. when they first started the begging of the black history week it said that it actually made people realize his people.
