Actor Morgan Freeman has reiterated his spite for Black History Month as he did in an old clip that has floated around the internet for years. "I detest it," he told a reporter last week.
Freeman, who has long been a critic of Black History Month, told Variety in an interview about the subject, “I detest it. The mere idea of it."
“You are going to give me the shortest month in a year? And you are going to celebrate ‘my’ history? This whole idea makes my teeth itch. It’s not right,” he told the outlet. “My history is American history. It’s the one thing in this world I am interested in, beyond making money, having a good time and getting enough sleep," he added.
