why is every month black history month? how about american indian history month? its always black history month on every channel on every tv all around the billions of tvs - as if black was the only skin color??????
February is Black History Month, and as we are reminded every year, history
is still being made every day. In the long and textured story of
African-American life, television has played a vital ... morerole in civil rights,
cultural identity and historical firsts.
Decades after the first black leads and first interracial kiss,
African-American actors, producers and writers are among the most important
talents working in Hollywood. In honor of Black History Month, we wanted to
celebrate some particularly notable personalities. While a full roster of
outstanding African-American polymaths could never be compiled, we've listed
here some of the most influential names in contemporary television.
