ISSUE | BLACK HISTORY

Integrate our past

Harold Jackson's column was right on target, presenting a method for integrating black history into the general history of this country ("A wider view of black history," Sunday). This then becomes available to children from the time they pick up their first history book.

This could also allow us to recognize influential black leaders the same way we recognize any other leaders. It's about time we stop relegating certain peoples to the sidelines of our history.
