Morgan Freeman Criticizes Black History Month, Calls It an Insult

The actor argues that Black history should be recognized as part of American history, not confined to a single month.

Freeman expressed his disdain for Black History Month in a recent interview, calling it an insult and questioning its placement in the shortest month of the year.
He stated that Black history is American history and should be integrated into the broader narrative of the nation's past.
Freeman also criticized the term 'African American,' suggesting it oversimplifies the identities of Black people in the U.S.
His comments were made while discussing his new project, 'The Gray House,' a series about Union spies during the Civil War.
Freeman has a history of opposing Black History Month, having made similar remarks in past interviews.
