Black History

As I said when I first started this post,I was quite frustrated with the like of knowledge that my Black Brothers and Sisters have of Black History. February in America is Black History Month. I started this post in February 2011, which I may add turn out to be one sorry month for Black History. Not knowing ones History is like being a tree without roots.

Throughout American Black History there have been many Black Men and Black Women who were game changers, on the road to Freedom. For February 2012 I have 3 great Black Americans I want to present to you.

1.Mum Bett 1742-1829.

This Slave women whose suit for freedom helped bring about the end of Slavery in the State of Massachusetts. Please read about this great American Black Lady.

2. Elizabeth Keckley 1818-1907.

A Slave women who Bought her Freedom for $1200 Dollars. Quite a large sum in in the 1850s. Lizzies skills as a seamstress were taught to her by her mother.During the 1860 Lizzie became a close friend of Mary Todd Lincoln. Please read about this great Black American Lady.

Jack Johnson 1878-1946.

The first Black American HeavyWeight Boxing Champion. Against all odds This great Black American became heaveyWeight Champion. Please read about this great Black American.

This post is brought to you by my CD, how I lost weight, and how i am keeping it off.

1800

From 1505-1800 Black slaves were brought to America Beaten, raped, murdered, subjuated, made to work hard and made to breed like animals. However at the beganing of the 1800, White America had a big problem, After the American Revolution All but one northern States freeed their Slaves. Alot of Black Slaves had fought on the side of America during the war, and were now looking for America to fess up. Well White Americas answer for the Black slaves help in defeating Great Britain was to send them back to Africa. Some White leaders of that day, John Randolph, Henry Clay, Richard Bland Lee. These great White Americans created the American Colonzation Society, for resttling free Blacks back to Africa. When a man has been on his knees all of his life. And then you come to him and say i want you to fight for me, and if we win i will give you your freedom. Freedom is a great motivator it makes a man move a little faster, and fight a little harder. Well the Black Slave held up his end of the agreement. White America has never seen an agreement between themselfs and the Black Man they have ever felt bound to respect.


I created this Blog February 2010 Because after listing to Black Americans during Black history month, i came to realzation that most Black Americans under the age of 60 know very little about their own History. A funny thing about History, if you do not know where you came from how can you know where you are going.

This post is brought to you By my CD on how i loss weight, and how i am keeping it off. For only 16.95.

I always give honor to the American Black Woman.
