Black American History #1

USAmerica inc is an amalgam of different peoples from different places, with different stories.

And it's not like we're completely different from every other "country". Everyone everywhere came from somewhere else - or from someone else. It's just that here in the western hemisphere, the migration seems to date to a more recent past, and so we think we can get our heads around the history a little easier(?), knowing we don't have to trace our origins back to a time before about 20,000 years ago.

The point there being that everything is derivative. Everything came out of something else - we don't have any kind of history that belongs solely to us.

So we don't have American History without Black History.
