We shouldn't even be arguing why other races should have their own month when you think black history month itself is a bad concept.
Exactly, I don't like the concept of giving particular races their own months. But I think just getting rid of any particular monthes dedicated to a race and just having one month dedicated to the idea of reducing ignorance and prejudice through education. Its not going to be dedicated to a particular race, or even multiple races, the month would just be dedicated to the idea of using educating people to reduce prejudice.
