     One of the best things about February is that it celebrates Black History Month.  I recall the day many years ago when the Congress designated February as Black History Month.  Many people rejoiced; too many others wondered, what is the point?
     The point is that America's history is not a history of white people.  It is a history of all people.  We who live in the Eurocentric West forget that we are, in fact, a fading minority in the grand scheme of humanity.  Our history has been influential, yes, but in many ways it has only laid the groundwork for the coming expression of countless other histories, histories without which the world would not be what it is today.
     No one has exclusive claim to God's world.
