Actor Morgan Freeman derides Black History Month: 'My history is American history'

Actor Morgan Freeman once again criticized the idea of a Black History Month.

"I detest it," the 87-year-old actor told Variety Saturday. "The mere idea of it. You are going to give me the shortest month in a year? And you are going to celebrate ‘my’ history?! This whole idea makes my teeth itch. It’s not right."

Freeman added, "My history is American history. It’s the one thing in this world I am interested in, beyond making money, having a good time and getting enough sleep."
