I loved your column today — very clever. I have only one comment. You suggested that Presidents’ Day represents George Washington’s birthday. The fact is that we used to celebrate Lincoln’s birthday on February 12 and Washington’s birthday on February 22. I thought that was changed to one holiday for both (Presidents’ Day). I just looked it up and find that it originally was, as you suggested, a celebration of our first president. However, over the years it has changed as a holiday honoring both. So I guess you were accurate, but I always equate the holiday with both presidents.

I agree that this celebration of This Month and others creates a desire for those left out to protest not having one celebrating them.

Jackie was quite a Guy. And brave to Bo what he did. I always thought they did too much complaining until on my Duty in Alaska they sent a Black. Manto my Coast Guard Cutter and the rest of the crew was from Alabama, Georgia and Florida. The hate these crew members had for this kid amazed Me. There was no justification for the way they treated him.

Just. Because I was civil and welcomed him aboard they did not like me any longer because I was a “Nigger Lover.”

I saw real animosity at work with ingrained hate encouraged from a life time of crazy animosity.

Having never seen this I would think current black months were over done, but that was s shocking to me, I could understand somewhat. What real racism is.

Doris Day? Isn’t that a bit of an odd reference. See you later.

Hello Raoul sorry it’s late but couldn’t wait ( no need to respond) , TGIF stand up chameleon 😂😂😂
Yeah I think the black folks are being set up by people in power that want division ( the hidden racist people in power ) I SEE A TRAP to start segregation again !
This would affect all minorities.
Imagine, what if they convince the black folks to fight for their own spot on the bus again and they take the bait 🤷‍♂️😂 it’s crazy MLK is probably rolling in his grave right now . Obama started all this race crap . Before Obama it was all about being American . It’s cool to be proud of where you come from but we should all be more proud to stand united as one NATION UNDER GOD 🇺🇸.
Not good when they start pushing for their own National Anthem, and all that other stuff.
Again I see a Trap and hope most black Americans will see it too .🙏🙏🙏
