Black History Month Is A Deeply Flawed Concept – Morgan Freeman

Hollywood actor, Morgan Freeman has come out to kick against Black History Month.

He recently described it as a deeply flawed concept, and fans have been reacting.

According to him, he absolutely detests and doesn’t relate to it in any way, and in fact, it makes his teeth itch.

He added that the entire idea behind the concept is not right because American history is the only history he identifies with.

His words, “You are going to give me the shortest month in a year? And you are going to celebrate ‘my’ history?! This whole idea makes my teeth itch. It’s not right.

[American history is] the one thing in this world I am interested in, beyond making money, having a good time and getting enough sleep.”

WOW.

The cinema of the United States, consisting mainly of major film studios (also known metonymously as Hollywood) along with some independent films, has had a large effect on the global film industry since the early 20th century.

The dominant style of American cinema is classical Hollywood cinema, which developed from 1910 to 1962 and is still typical of most films made there to this day.

Hollywood is considered to be the oldest film industry, in the sense of being the place where the earliest film studios and production companies emerged. It is the birthplace of various genres of cinema —among them comedy, drama, action, the musical, romance, horror, science fiction, and the epic—and has set the example for other national film industries.

Many of Hollywood’s highest-grossing movies have generated more box-office revenue and ticket sales outside the United States than films made elsewhere. The United States is a leading pioneer in motion picture engineering and technology.
