Why do the same people who celebrate Oktoberfest complain about Black History month?

    I think you are highly confused. They don't. How do I know? I am originally from Kitchener-Waterloo Ontario, Canada which hosts the worlds largest Oktoberfest outside of Germany. I have never once heard anyone complain about "Black History month" whilst guzzling beer in their laderhozen (sp?) or at any other time of the year. Ergo, it would appear that these two events are not correlated in the least and you are grasping at straws--as usual. Sorry to inform.

    truly? who's complaining? and Oktoberfest is a occasion of white custom? Why isn't it St. Patrick's Day? or Cinco de Mayo? i think of you're starting to be celebrating (eating) mixed up with cultural occasion.

    It probably has nothing to do with the fact that Hitler lost his favorite beer to Allied bombing, including the bombing by black American aviators like theTuskegee Airmen folks.

    lol.

    Don't be silly ya'll Octoberfest is not an official USA Holiday, it was started in Germany about 1810 in Munich.

    Some people will oppose anything that favors African Americans, it makes me so sad and ashamed of those who hate so much without a reason...

    Yeah, they often celebrate St Patricks Day and Cinco de Mayo too.

    Source(s): Guess if you added alcohol to Black History Month, they wouldn't complain as much.

    It just goes to show that even a person who's wrong about everything else can still enjoy a good cold stein of beer.

    The Governor's residence wouldn't be an expensive temporary mansion if a Democrat hadn't set the actual Governor's Mansion on fire.

    Liberals are like that.

    The same people who brought you a segregated military (Woodrow Wilson), are the same who opposed civil rights (Al Gore's Dad, Gov. Wallace, Sen Byrd et.al.) are the same ones that still do all of the above and call everyone else racists.
