Some often question why Black History, BET, Africa, Jet, Ebony & Black History Month necessary. They are all related and very behind in high lighting Black Beauty, Achievements and the struggle. No one can write a history of a particular group accurately; without the group's participation. This is why it is extremely vital for Black participation in history.
Also, highlight people like Princess Elizabeth of Toro. A beautiful modern day Princess, who is an African, Model, Actress, Activist, etc. Dr. Kwame Nkrumah from Ghana who played a critical role in the Civil Rights Movement. You will not hear about these people and others who have made significant difference in society. A book by Daniel Laine` called "AFRICAN KINGS" also mentions the Kings and Queens; in Africa who kept up with the culture and values, while making a difference in politics. So if BET, Ebony, Jet, Black History Month exist; they must be honored! Without them, Black History will not be heard or told.
