Thankfully in the UK we don’t have a black history month. (or at least not one that I’ve ever heard about)

Stupid, pointless and demeaning to all concerned.  
Useful only as a backdrop to manufactured “outrages” like this shirt.

I roll my eyes and go back to living my life without bias or prejudice. I don’t find that too much of a challenge.
