Black Music History Month
iTunes Music Store informs me that June is Black Music History Month. Now, I love music by black Americans as much as anyone. I constantly have Stevie Wonder and Miles Davis in my playlist.
But isn't Black History Month long enough to also focus on music? 28 days is a long time. If not, maybe we could move Black History Month to March, get those three extra days to focus on music.
Or maybe this is a good idea, spread it out over the whole year.
OK, obviously, I kinda ran out of topics. So maybe 12 is too many; maybe they can be every other month.

Now Playing: Melissa Etheridge - Mama I'm Strange
"It is the common fate of the indolent to see their rights become a prey to the active. The condition upon which God hath given liberty to man is eternal vigilance; which condition if he break, servitude is at once the consequence of his crime and the punishment of his guilt."
