It absolutely divides people and needs to go. Black people (such as Martin Luther King Jr and Nelson Mandela) have made a huge impact on history and should be celebrated and remembered as part of history - not separated into their own month. Quite frankly it's insulting.

I don't think it has much affect in the long run. The fact is that black history was almost completely ignored for much of American history, so the month was created to put focus on something that never had focus. But nowadays I don't know if it's necessary.
