I may have misunderstood his racism view but I understood him to say that things such as black history month shouldn't exist because it is just history and should be treated as such. Basically, treated equally rather than have a specific month which I have to agree with. The way to reduce racism is to bring down barriers, not build them up so to speak, the US as a nation hasn't got a massive amount of history, of the history, major parts are related to either civil rights or slavery, a major part of black history in the US. It should be treated as mainstream and not a thing a month every year

I was very disappointed when I was doing an engineering seminar with some school kids and I put a big picture up of "Suck, Squeeze, Bang, Blow" related to an engine and I didn't even get even a stiffled snigger, I worry about the next generation! When I was in school, had someone come into class and put that up, I'd have been howling and quite possibly asked to leave the classroom!
