February To Be Canceled

African Americans have yet another civil issue on their hands for the first time in forty years. It has just been announced by the United Nations that due to findings by the International Center of Planetary Study that the month of February will have to be cut out of our yearly calendar.

The Center released a statement saying “Due to the rapid increase in the rotation of the plant Earth in its relationship of distance apart from the sun we have found that it would benefit the world as a whole to cut the month of February out of the yearly calendar. This proves benefit the world as it eliminates the task of having someone to redo the calendar every few years in the future. After all February is such a short month who will miss it?”

Ellen Anderson, an astronomer at NASA and someone that was born in February, says the she personally doesn’t mind after all that means she spends less time at work each year. Many of the thousands of supporters for the retraction of February as a month say why not remove it from calendars world wide.

Kayla Green an avid supporter of this change says “Why not remove February it is not that important to the course of world history. After all the yearly calendar that we know today has been change many times since it was first made by Julius Caesar back in ancient Rome.”



Members of the NAACP have an extra reason to be mad; due to the fact the February is Black History month. This has many African American leaders such as the Reverend Al Sharpton mad.

According Reverend Sharpton this is yet another atrocity that is intolerable and should be seen as a direct attack against all the civil liberties that the African American community has worked hard to gain. He has called for a march on Washington D.C. to gather awareness on this issue.

Many members of congress support the change and have no idea why there is such contempt of this change and are already working on giving the displaced holidays new date.

Congressman Ted Kennedy said, “I am currently introducing a bill that will move Black History month into the month of October, in hopes of calming these disagreements and out cries of rage.”
The National Census Bureau has issued a statement announcing that any person whose birthday was in the month of February will have their birthdays divided up between the months of January and March.

Those with birthdays from February 1 to the 14 will have the same date of birth but in the month of January. Those who have birthdays from February 15 to the 29 will have the same date of birth just in the month of March.

The month of February will always be in our memories as its existence fades from our lives and the only reference of it is found in history books.
