His Own Black History

Great pod, Black people have done so much in this world but we never hear about it in schools.

Thanks for this! On the last day of "Black History Month" in the US, it is important to keep a non-passive eye on our heritage and our history.

I love your pod and I agree with you completely. Ignorance has to stop we need to educate ourselves about our culture, be proud of who we are.

I can only say thank you to Brothers (Realla's) like this. It is so amazing that we still to this day have not as a world taken sides against the one thing that separates us as human beings...Our physical differences. As a people Blacks world wide suffer from the psychological affects of a racist power structure that has been in place since the times of Kemitic (Ancient Egypt) era. As a Go-realla, It is my job to force those to take an honest look at this Racist Power Structure Present the Truths as they have been given to us, and induce all of humanity to choose a side! So whether you are Mongoloid, Caucasoid, or Negroid...You have to make a conscious choice to either perpetuate the Psychological Terrorism or join to side to combat this ignorance in all of it's forms! Contact me as we seek to open a forum to derail the negative Fate of "Our" World! Thank you Brother Hoo!

Very inlightening. Thanks you all.

This was a great pod. I appreciate the honesty and candor. I can identify with the pain Lawrence Hoo expresses. I feel the same way about my educational experience. I was one of a very small number of blacks that attended primary and secondary school in my area of Southern California. I made a conscious, but individual decision to attend Morehouse College, a historically black college located in Atlanta, for the opportunity to be around other blacks and learn my history; something I was not taught in elementary, junior high, or high school. I am very happy with my decision to matriculate at Morehouse College almost 20 years ago. I am now a high school administrator in the same district I attended school as a child. Daily I challenge myself to influence and inspire all of my students, no matter their hue, to be the best they can be. My mission is to model respect for all people and teach my students an appreciation for others and their historical contribution to society.

Despite school's cracking down on racism in Britain it seems that the National Curriculum can do so much more to help inspire all ethnic groups in this country.

It is a travesty that such rich heritages are not taught as widely as they could be.

Just more reason why we need to pull the youth from the tube and plug 'em on the culture.

Hoo is right. We need to teach them now. Don't try to push the dust over it. Dig it up and let it grow.
