Feb/Year is smaller than Black US pop/US pop

[michaelaisgreat]

The US black population is 12.4%.

If we multiply 12.4% by 365.25 days/year, it comes out to 45.291 days/year that should be dedicated to "black" history.

It seems interesting that February, the shortest month, was chosen.

This, of course, means that the White/Asian/Native* months (note: plural) that is, January, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, December make up a higher percentage of the year than they do the population.

Any thoughts as to why? Is this a good thing?


*Oh yeah, I'm sooo insensitive leaving out Mexican or whatever. FALSE. That isn't a different race, those people are a subset of Caucasians aka as White people.

I AGREE WITH YOU.

Really, only 12%? My town is like, 63% black, I thought the black population of the US was at least 30%
