Abstract	21st century Black children and adolescents have lost a connection with the social and cultural currents of the mid-20th century. The author, while she acknowledges the troubles that plagued the Black community in the past, laments what Black culture has become in the age of integration. She ties this concern to the similar decline of Black History Month from a genuine celebration to a crassly commercialized event; however, she maintains that Black History Month has value even in its modern form, due to the fact that it reminds the Black community of the shining moments in their past and brings up the hard questions about power that seem to have been lost in the prevailing cultural confusion.
