T-Pain Demands White People Stop Celebrating Black History Month
‘We Don’t Need Our Own Sh*t, You Separating Us Again’ – T-Pain
During a recent conversation with TMZ, T-Pain demands white people stop celebrating Black History Month, “the shortest month of the year.” He adds that it’s “separating us again” and that Black people “don’t need our own sh*t.”
As the Rappa Ternt Sanga (and producer) was strolling through LAX, he shared his thoughts on the recent bomb threats at HBCUs (Historically Black Colleges & Universities) and insight on “How white people can celebrate Black History Month, the right way.”
T-Pain says, “[White people should] stop celebrating it. I think we should celebrate Black History Month. I think we should just have history. They overshot it. We don’t want our own sh*t. You separating us again! We want to be part of history, not just one month of it. I’d rather everybody stop celebrating that sh*t and just let us be part of history. And if you haven’t paid attention, it’s the shortest month of the year.”

Black History Month is an annual observance originating in the United States, where it is also known as African-American History Month. It has received official recognition from governments in the United States and Canada, and more recently has been observed in Ireland, and the United Kingdom.
It began as a way of remembering important people and events in the history of the African diaspora. It is celebrated in February in the United States and Canada, while in Ireland, and the United Kingdom it is observed in October.
The precursor to Black History Month was created in 1926 in the United States, when historian Carter G. Woodson and the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History announced the second week of February to be “Negro History Week”.
This week was chosen because it coincided with the birthday of Abraham Lincoln on February 12 and that of Frederick Douglass on February 14, both of which dates black communities had celebrated together since the late 19th century.
