Interviewer: Black history month you find…

Morgan Freeman: Ridiculous.

Interviewer: Why?

Morgan Freeman: You’re going to relegate my history to a month?

Interviewer: Oh, come on.

Morgan Freeman: What do you do with yours? Which month is white history month?

Interviewer: (pause) Well, I’m Jewish.

Morgan Freeman: Okay. Which month is Jewish history month?

Interviewer: There isn’t one.

Morgan Freeman: Oh, oh. Why not? Do you want one?

Interviewer: No.

Morgan Freeman: Right. I don’t either. I don’t want a black history month. Black history is American history.

Interviewer: How are we going to get rid of racism?

Morgan Freeman: Stop talking about it.

I found this interview on libertarians.tumblr.com. While I’m not sure I agree with a lot that is posted there, as someone who both is bi-racial and was raised in a home where race was never pointed out (heck, I was was a teenager before I realized my favorite cousin was “black”, lol), I applaud Freeman’s response to the question about racism in this interview.
