    Your comments on today’s CNN segment were totally inappropriate. Black history needs to be incorporated into American (and other nation’s) history. You would be offended if there was a “White history” month. Your advocacy, as well-intentioned as it is, harms the “healing of racial divisions” and prolongs the achievement of the very thing you advocate. I understand you point very clearly. Why can’t you see the other side and the potential damage that your position causes?
