The United States Military Academy has just eliminated all Cadet clubs and activities for POC. Most of these have existed for decades like the Society of Black Engineers. They were there when I was a Cadet in 1987. All of the religious ones remain. This isn’t DEI. It’s white Christian Nationalism.

Today marks the start of Black History Month — a time to recognize both the hardships endured by and celebrate the achievements of Black Americans.

Black history is American history and it is critical that we honor Black voices and leaders every single day of the year.
