Every year in history begins with January, so it is certainly the best place to start when talking about White History Month. There are a variety of white-people holidays in January. These include the following:

The month takes its name from the Roman God Janus, god of doorways and beginnings. Like white people, he is two-faced. Every year in history begins with January, so it is certainly the best place to start when talking about White History Month. There are a variety of white-people holidays in January. These include the following: * Handsel Monday in Scotland and northern England – First Monday. * Russian and Ukrainian Christmas Eve – January 6 (It was illegal during the Soviet era.) * Plough Sunday in Scotland and northern England – Sunday after January 6 (like, 13). * Australia Day in Australia - January 26 (Summer time down under). * Burns night in Scotland – January 25 (Winter time gets warmer). * The uniting of Moldavia and Wallachia under the same ruler in 1859, Romania – January 24 (old calendar?) Note: This month was almost disqualified from inclusion within the list of unofficial White History Months because it includes the birthday of Martin Luther King, Jr..
