Morgan Freeman is reiterating his views on race relations. During an interview with the Sunday Times, the actor said there are two things he publicly doesn’t like — Black History Month and the term “African-American.” He calls both an insult, asking why his race is relegated to one month and added he doesn’t subscribe to the term “African-American.” He also said most “black people in this part of the world are mongrels” and Africa is spoken about like it’s a country when it’s a continent. In 2005, Freeman also explained to 60 Minutes that he opposed the celebration of Black History Month because “Black history is American history.”
