People aren’t being segregated by their skin colour. You may as well claim Pride is homophobic. Black history month covers who again? It covers black people. You do realise that a month of activities that focuses on the achievements of one particular group is not actually live racial segregation don’t you? I think you are using terms you don’t understand. You can easily ignore it. How does it adversely impact you?

I'm not fan of woke identity politics, I consider it toxic as hell, If your born in the UK or have become a UK citizen then UK history IS your history, the fact it singles out one race is even more distasteful! Why are black people thought of as different to every other race of British Citizen, it literally says "your black so have to be treated differently", kind of like racists do!

www.britannica.com/topic/racial-segregationTo help you out Rev: “ Racial segregation, the practice of restricting people to certain circumscribed areas of residence or to separate institutions (e.g., schools, churches) and facilities (parks, playgrounds, restaurants, restrooms) on the basis of race or alleged race. Racial segregation provides a means of maintaining the economic advantages and superior social status of the politically dominant group” None of this applies to BHM. You should maybe have googled The definition first.

Why do you care though? It does not impact you so why do you care? Are you saying I'm not permitted an opinion on something thats in the news? Can you read what I wrote? Try again. And then you can dismantle your strawman. Nobody is saying you are not permitted an opinion. I asked why you care and how it impacts you. Which you haven’t really answered apart from with an incorrect definition of racial segregation.

Why does it have to impact me for me to have an opinion?
Context van, pedantry won't work.

Why does it have to impact me for me to have an opinion? Context van, pedantry won't work. You still struggling with words. I did not say your having an opinion depends on the impact to you. Why are you strawmanning? I asked why you care and what is the impact to you and you still have not answered.

I can only have an opinion if it impacts me or I care, thats what I am hearing!

I am taking about history and you posted a definition that was out of context, if you have to resort to accusations go talk to someone else, I can't be asked with ad hominem attacks! Have a nice day.

Again why black people finally getting some recognition for their past contributions being such a threat to you is a mystery to me.
