The History the Slaveholders Wanted Us to Forget - NYTimes.com

Black History Month.  Remember our ancestors.  Reflect on the past, the present, and our future.

Our challenge today is to ensure that more and more stories like these become a central part of the school curriculum, as well as the stuff of documentaries and the mythologies of Hollywood, so that they will never be lost again.
