Thoughts to Consider


An interview with the enigmatic Morgan Freeman and his opinion on Black History Month. Every one has their own point-of-view. And whether you agree or not, here's a lesson in understanding and accepting the views of others. 


Interviewer: Black history month you find...


Morgan Freeman: Ridiculous.


Interviewer: Why?


Morgan Freeman: You're going to relegate my history to a month?


Interviewer: Oh, come on.


Morgan Freeman: What do you do with yours? Which month is white history month?


Interviewer: (pause) Well, I'm Jewish.


Morgan Freeman: Okay. Which month is jewish history month?


Interviewer: There isn't one.


Morgan Freeman: Oh, oh. Why not? Do you want one?


Interviewer: No.


Morgan Freeman: Right. I don't either. I don't want a black history month. Black history is American history.


Interviewer: How are we going to get rid of racism?


Morgan Freeman: Stop talking about it?
