Don't Forget

February marks Black History Month.

Also don't forget that black does not necessarily equal African-American or even African. There are many other black people groups in the world, such as the aboriginals of Pacific Islands, Australia and, oh yes, New Guinea.

During this month, I will remember the people of my island far away. And back in North America, I will celebrate the (very) few, the (occasionally) brave, the proud (and wierd), the Papuan-Americans!
