CELEBRATING AFRICA HISTORY MONTH 2014

Here in Ireland I stated the initiative of Celebrating "Africa History Month Ireland 2010" African-American is now trying to change from "Black American" to "African-American". When I stated it was hard but I stand for what I believe and now, their is changes around the world with the use of the Word "Black/Africa", I am proud of my "Black Skin Complexion" but my history is trace back to the "Continent of AFRICA specifically A Yoruba by Birth in Nigeria" I embrace the celebration of our history 365 days a year and even to the creation of the world. African History Month was never designed to be the only time of the year that we acknowledge our history but was designed to be a celebration of our history and the accomplishments that Africans both home and in diaspora have made as African's in the continent of Africa and in the World at Large. As African-Americans and Canada celebrate in the month of February as "BlackHistoryMonth" Britain in October, here in Ireland we are celebrating with you and proud of all Africans living in America.
