Ah, I did notice that Black History Month somehow disappeared from my calendar.

Now I know why. Incredible.

Google Calendar removed events like Pride and BHM because its holiday list wasn’t ‘sustainable’

Some Google Calendar users noticed that certain events like the Pride month are no longer highlighted. Google stopped manually adding cultural moments last year.
