Twitter brought out its best stuff to commemorate the first full week of Black History Month.

There was a lot to talk about with the third Black quarterback winning the Super Bowl in a surprising comeback, Twitter defending a little girl whose pencil was stolen by little Miss Lizzie and the back-and-forth over Gayle King's interview with Lisa Leslie.
These are your tweets of the week.
Twitter blasted Ben Carson for trying to distract us from noticing his white allies wearing "Keep Iowa Great" hats on a flight.
“If we make BEN CARSON awkwardly stand squat in the aisle, it will make it less obvious that everyone on this bus is white.” pic.twitter.com/GCPgZFNl8e

I feel sad for Ben Carson.
Because I don't think even he himself realizes that he's just GOP's token black guy.— Rama’s Screen (@RamasScreen) February 4, 2020

Twitter also had a lot of thoughts about Megan Thee Stallion and G-Eazy getting cozy, especially during BHM.

The star rapper eventually took out a little time to say she wasn't with G-Eazy, but that didn't stop the jokes.
Lol alright nowww y’all got all y’all jokes out ???? but I am not fucking G Eazy.

Of course, Twitter had to take some time to put Grammy-winner Billie Eilish in her place after she made some incendiary comments about hip-hop.

y'all defended that white girl dressing like Dem Franchize Boyz and now she think she got the authority to critique a culture that isn't hers.

Also, it wouldn't be Twitter if there wasn't a random tweet that kept us laughing and kept our spirits up.

Football fans also had a good laugh at this video shared by Black Super Bowl-winning quarterback Patrick Mahomes.

But no videos could kickstart Black History Month better than one featuring the joy in this little boy's face.
