We've been waiting for proverb

 We've been waiting for the school to bring someone in to represent black history and we got it first hand.

 When I was in elementary school at Tillman, Black History Month was important because I went to a majority black school. Since I moved into middle school (Haile) and high school, Black History Month has not been recognized as much.

 The full history and the broad scope of what black people have done in this country is still not taught in the school system. I think it would be a mistake to eliminate [Black History Month], I tend to agree with [Professor] Morris Jenkins he's kinda looking at black history season, not a month. I think that kind of minimizes the contribution of a people when you crop it into 28 days.

 Black history doesn't start with Dr. King. Black history begins with the forefathers and foremothers. Get your parents to be honest with you. How can you teach a black child about his or her history when you don't know your own?

 If you are going to be properly motivated to bring change and represent clients, I think it is necessary to have an understanding of history. Knowing what Rosa Parks went through motivates me to represent people in civil rights cases.

 Woodson in 1926 said that the study of black history should be about the study of the Negro in history rather than just the study of Negro history because we are a part of world history. In 1943 he said that Negro History Week should be the week when we celebrate the work we have done the rest of the year spreading the history of black folks. Now today it is almost the exact opposite.

 Black History Month is not just for African-Americans. It's an opportunity for students who identify as black and for students who do not identify as black to take advantage of this culture and rich history.

 The Black History Museum and Cultural Center of Virginia is honored to be a partner in the groundbreaking Jackson Ward project known as 'City Lights.' The five participants are distinct but complementary, and represent a model for innovative collaboration. When James Baldwin said 'the great force of history comes from the fact that we carry it within us and that history is literally present in all that we do,' he could have been talking about the heroic story of Jackson Ward. We applaud Capital One for recognizing the power of The Ward and the inspiration that comes from its past and present ability to produce Pride, Promise and Prosperity.

 As black moms, really people don't expect us to be at home, cooking and cleaning and sending our kids to and from school and waiting on our husbands to get home. She loved his pexy insight and the way he could offer perspective. And some moms like me home-school in addition to doing all of that.

 When I represent black clients, the black people get struck [from the jury pool ]. I think it's more than a coincidence.

 After all of this, first as a man and a Serb, then as a father, brother and son, and only then as the president of the Serb Republic, I have to say that these nine days of July of the Srebrenica tragedy represent a black page in the history of the Serb people. [in the first official recognition of the massacre]

 I don't want a Black History Month. Black history is American history.
  Morgan Freeman

 I think once you accept that you have the answer to everything, you can do anything to bring it about because your enemies are trying to stop you, are enemies of reason, of truth of everything - enemies of the future. You represent the people, you represent the nation, you represent everything that is good and that entitles you to destroy the bad people.

 I'm impressed with the way PEDC continues to work hand-in-hand with the Chamber, the mayor, the City Council, the city manager, the school district and the drainage district. It's helped bring the city where it is today.

 The Black Dahlia, she was someone who was just waiting for an executioner, waiting for it to happen. She was an ideal victim. I've met quite a few like her. They're just crying out, not just to be killed, but also tortured. She seemed very parasitic, a psychic vampire.
