1Z-1: Heart surgery was first performed successfully by a black man

Why don't they teach things like that on 'Black' History month? I learned that from a Stevie Wonder song! Not from 'Black' History Month!

In fact, most 'Black' History month is devoted to teaching of all the times when 'white' people were mean to 'black' people! It's not 'Black' History month- it's white people being mean history month!

Those rappers would have you believe that a 'Black' man never gets to be anything but a rapper!

It ain't true!

'Black' people were working at NASA even back in the 50's! There are 'Black' scientists- like Neil DeGrasse Tyson! There are 'Black' poets like Amanda Gorman! There are 'Black' political leaders like Obama and Kamala Harris!

Where are all those people on "Black' History month?

'Black' people are reluctant to take the coronavirus vaccine- they don't realize that some of the scientists working on it are 'Black' like them! Because rap music tells them that no 'Black' man is ever successful at anything other than being a rapper- but it ain't true! And 'Black' History month tells them that all of 'Black' history consists of nothing but racism and trouble and no achievements- but it ain't true!

It ain't true!

Search for the real 'Black' history in the words of Stevie Wonder's song 'Black man' from 'Songs in the key of life'- that's where I learned that heart surgery was first performed successfully by a black man! And there's more 'Black' history in the song! It's a start!

A very good start! And thank you, Stevie Wonder!

Sincerely,

David S. Annderson

P.S. For more look at my Deviantart page for my two histories of preindustrial sub-Saharan Africa! A thousand years of great kingdoms just like Wakanda from 'Black Panther' far across Africa, and over 2,000 years of great kingdoms and great seaports in a great crossroads of the world in Ethiopia and Somalia! A whole vast history more like Tolkien or Black Panther than anything in the past 200 years!
