Both history classes in college I have taken have had a discussion about something relating to African Americans on dang near EVERY test! Now this is like 7 or 8 tests, each having a list of essays and you choose 1 or 2 to write about. As far as I can remember. EVERY LIST had discussions on African Americans in some way or another.
We would joke in class that we were taking Black History. I very seriously thought about writting the "n word" out in one of my essays a few times, and then marking through it and putting black above it.
