Actor Morgan Freeman says 'I detest' Black History Month! Here's why he is WRONG!!! Respecting Dr. Carter G. Woodson - Michael Imhotep & Prof. Manu Ampim 'The African History Network Show' 6-18-24 & 3-31-24

 

Morgan Freeman has dismissed the idea of Black History Month, saying: “My history is American history.” He said in a interview with Variety Magazine on June 15th, 2024. The 87-year-old 'Driving Miss Daisy', 'The Shawshank Redemption' and 'Seven' star had previously called the annual event, which is observed throughout February, an “insult”. In a new interview with Variety, Freeman elaborated on those feelings. “I detest it,” he said. “The mere idea of it. You are going to give me the shortest month in a year? And you are going to celebrate ‘my’ history?! This whole idea makes my teeth itch. It’s not right.”
