Highlighting differences in race only makes racism worse. Want to know how to end racism? Stop talking about it and just treat everyone like human beings and recognizing them for what they do, not what color their skin is or where they come from. Problem solved.

Glad to see NASA has their priorities straight. Worry about how gays, jews and hispanics feel is far far more important than getting to the moon.

Things like black history and hispanic history and women history month just make things worse. It's not hispanic history, it's history.

Aren't we all just one people?  Why all these celebrations based on race?
