How well do you think cultural diversity is presented and accepted during this, Black History Month?

I believe cultural diversity is not well represented during Black History Month because people believe that diversity doesn’t matter and the schools don’t really promote and discuss the Civil Rights Movement.

I don’t think Black History Month is expressed well. I think people need to be more aware of the cultures in society more than one month a year. If it’s going to be encouraged one time a year, I feel it needs to be elaborated much more.

The national media does a good job of presenting Black History Month, but locally is a different story. There could easily be drastic improvements within the community and schools.
