But that new big fat black woman statue in Times Square makes me gag when I look at it.
With a major plot twist. You can celebrate Black History Month WITHOUT any DEI policies.
(As for me, maybe I'll think seriously about BHM when they actually recognize Caucasian History Month.)
CNN contributor and White House correspondent for TheGrio, April Ryan, wanted to know the Trump White House's plans for Black History Month, which has traditionally been celebrated in February after it was first recognized by President Gerald Ford, Republican, back in 1976. Ryan was obviously concerned about the administration's efforts to scrub all traces of discriminatory DEI practices from the federal government.
Leavitt was prepared:
“As far as I know, this White House certainly still intends to celebrate, and we will continue to celebrate American history and the contributions that all Americans, regardless of race, religion or creed, have made to our great country,” Leavitt said. “And America is back.”
America is indeed back, and President Trump did indeed issue a Black History Month proclamation with a not-so-subtle sign that all black American patriots, not just the ones favored by the left, should be and would be honored.
