There was a time when black history was not discussed for even a month out of the year. But now that we have Black History Month, it makes much more sense to say, "Why not the whole year?" Why do we need blinders to the most important parts of our history, the history of the oppressed? That's why Zinn's book A People's History of the United States is so important. It needs to be read all year round.
