During Black History Month, individuals are generally honored by schools, government entities and others for the important contributions they made to the civil rights movement. One group, though, the Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA), has honored a man, in the name of Black History Month, Siraj Wahhaj, who is known for being linked to one of the worst terrorist attacks on US soil. That event, the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, took the lives of six people, including a pregnant woman, and injured over one thousand more. To pay tribute to such a man is an act of callous disregard to the attack victims and those who suffered injustices of the past.
