Well, it's February 25; only three more days of Negro History Month. How will you observe this fun/solemn passage?

What part of black history are we remembering this month? Running through the jungle with a pointy stick? Cannibalism? The great african mud hut metropolis?

I was trying to think of anything they actually did likely invent. It's possible they were the first to introduce beads, (like using shells for necklaces), body modification (like putting hoops through their ears, bones in their nose), and scarification (cutting the skin to make raised marks to show tribal status/coming of age rituals).

A black girl at my school was bragging a few days ago that a black person invented the elevator. I looked this up on the internet and found that there was a black man who invented a certain elevator design, but of course he didn't "invent the elevator."
