[@swearimnotarobot3746]

Not racist but it wasn't invented by a black guy. The confusion comes from the fact a black person invented the current version of the traffic light with the yellow light.

Maybe that’s what the squid game doll should have said, and maybe more people would have survived that game!

[@merpderpyerp]

Coming from a white person this is an unpopular opinion but I agree with Leslie.. they shouldn't be cramming black history into one month, it should be taught throughout the course. Morgan Freeman said it best "You're going to regulate my history to one month? I don't want black history month. Black history is American history." I understand the point is to raise awareness about racial issues but Freeman also said "How do you stop racism? You stop talking about it." The bigger the deal that is made the more people are going to treat each other differently. Heck, I never noticed skin color or genders growing up.. my parents never had to tell me "We're all equal," I just knew.. but then once it was brought up that "I'm different from you" others made it an issue. But that's just my opinion and there's no one specific answer to fix the world.. this video just made me want to share my perspective.

[@missfunkadilly]

Tori Farrell Agreed. Separating things out only emphasizes that there is somehow a difference, when there really isn't. It should all be taught at the same time, or rather mixed in to their appropriate historical time frames, instead of learning about 300 years of black American history in one month. It's ridiculous.

[@beakatriu1557]

Very very true. It's history and it should be taught all year, not just barely talked about for 31 days

[@tinicoleofficial]

Tori Farrell exactly💯💯💯💯

[@tinicoleofficial]

Bea Katriu or just 28 bc it's February...

[@JasonShallPerish]

They also shouldn't teach complete bullshit in history classes, such as claiming black people invented shit they had nothing to do with, like the mailbox for instance.

[@regularguyanonymous3248]

I love Leslie jones, she's smart, witty and has great execution.

[@xstoofpeer]

and loud and obnoxious

[@lieutenantthalia6575]

Can Leslie Jones teach me history?

[@adeleennis2255]

OMG! That would be awesome! She would definitely make it memorable.

[@n.fer.2596]

Can we take a moment to appreciate how talented Leslie Jones is? I wish she has more complex parts like this! The usual stuff is funny but I like when she shows off her range of talent!

[@itzzzsss]

she's funny. like a long lost Aunt

[@JanMichael-Vincent]

Her calling white people stupid for not inventing the mailbox first is fucking hilarious

[@chelseacooper117]

g b y but if a white person said that bout a black person it would be such a big deal lol. Double standards .

[@mimsydreams]

It's one of only two double standards. Let us have this. Everyone else has 800 double standards.

[@deaf-tomcat]

+Chelsea Cooper If a white person said that about a black or brown person, you're sure as HELL it'd be racist and that there'd be an uproar. Why? Because white people have a special kind of privilege that has given them more opportunity to prevail. If a disenfranchised person didn't invent something, it's not so much that they are stupid, but that they lack the environment and opportunity to invent something. The joke is funny because white people have CENTURIES of privilege afforded to them, and they still didn't invent something like the mailbox or hotcomb. (And yes, even if you are poor or disenfranchised in some other way- by gender, sexuality, religion, etc- you still receive privilege from being white. You can be both privileged in one aspect and oppressed in another. It's why queer white people still have privilege, from being white, even though they experience oppression for their sexuality.) Life isn't black or white.

[@xstoofpeer]

Asians in the 60's were living in the same conditions as the poorest black folks in america, they could speak the language barely and still managed to get out of the ghetto's and right now are one of the most hard-working and highest earning minorities equal to whites. Constituional racism doesnt exist anymore, in a country with a black president, stop trying to act like black people are oppressed.

[@aratosm]

What are you talking about, the president is white.

The george washington carver thing is so real. I really don't want to know more about the peanuts smh

[@GeronFletcher]

Natalie Long here's a carver fact I bet they didn't tell you in school. He was adopted as a kid by a white family in Iowa and when they got him, they castrated him because they were scared he would have sex with their white daughter. Aka his sister. You can find old video clips of him as an older man and you can even hear his voice is very very high pitched since he was a castrati....

[@beakatriu1557]

Natalie Long I don't even think they taught us any black history last year or at all in middle school. I'm in high school now and it's bout to be February, I still doubt they will teach us more than just what we already know like MLJK and Rosa Parks. Not that those figures aren't important, I just wanna know more than that. But since the schools don't teach me I just google it myself honestly

[@padlok1520]

source please

[@nataliedenton1299]

Bea Katriu I agree they only teach us about a few people instead of all of the amazing poc who shaped our history.

[@adeleennis2255]

One of the best things I ever watched was the Eyes on the Prize series. Granted, we’ve learned more about some of the events, but it was still really powerful to watch. My sister was watching it for an African American Studies class. Her professor had actually been shot during the Orangeburg Massacre. I was so sad when I tried to take the class and that professor had to take a leave of absence to care for a family member. The replacement professor totally changed the style of the class from the original syllabus.
