Black History Month is upon us. And like every year, it's a time to reflect upon the important contributions African Americans have made to the country. But it's not always biscuits and gravy. Certain people see February as a prime opportunity to complain—about the month itself, over who should or shouldn’t be honored, and whether or not certain corporations are really honoring black culture with hip-hop themed television ads.

That said, here’s our list of 25 tweets you can expect to see during Black History Month. Feel free to chime in and know that you’re more than welcome to refrain from airing select grievances until at least Cinco de Mayo.
