Black history month? Ok! Now, please table some pre-15th century black history!

I suspect there were black people prior to slavery, colonisation, apartheid, and the ongoing struggles in America!

Perhaps not as conveniently documented like other circulated forms of history, but hey, you want black history, go dig that pre-15th century stuff up. Mythology, you may well find those too. ‘Sango the god of thunder’ is popular one (similar to Thor), spread as far as Brazil..

I’m sure many (and not only black folk) may find it of interest as opposed to just the usual tales of woe, covering the last 500 or so years….

History should not be rewritten after the fact.

Black History Month!? Black people are probably not just a single group, under this all encompassing banner of BLACK!? I wouldn’t presume White History month is the history of Germans? Which folk rep White? It’s the same general error of saying I was just in Africa! while only visiting Tanzania! Well, there’s probably a bit more to Africa than just Tanzania?
My best guess would be that Black History would require a Chieftain from one of the countries in Africa, to provide some historical facts? and the loop in other bits?
Well, I’m clearly not an expert on the subject, but I am quite certain looking at say, history of Black people in the UK is not necessarily Black History (it’s part of it, but…)
