Melanated People

A sick race

We’re a sick race
If that bothers you,
Then I don’t know what else to you
But as a nation of our own people
We’re a sick race
A sick black race….

What do I mean sick?
We have mental illnesses within us
It’s been passed down to generations
After generations from

Systematic abuse which is
Slavery and colonialism….

This lifetime abuse against us
Never seems to go away
It’s been updated, upgraded
It caused us a lot of frictions and angle…
Somehow we’re told not to be angry,
Not to cry nor don’t get too bold….

And we fear if we stand up for ourselves
We tend to back off and apologize for
Spittin facts of their wrongdoings….we’re bunch
Of punks who doesn’t want white supremacy to
Kill us if we unite our people together…

It’s why black men became too feminine to strike back…

Oh why do I mean by systemic abuse?
Well police brutality, mortality birth death rates in the hospitals
Deeply brainwashin constantly whitewashin to hate thy black self…
There are so many abuse that are against the melaninated race
I’m not goin to list them all so I call it systemic abuse

That causes a lot of syndromes…..

It’s why black people need to understand
Why we have slave mentalities….
Why do we behaved like this?
Why do we love whiteness so much but don’t have the love
For ourselves?
I do observe that a lot….
I even observe Jesus Christ on our brains….

It’s why black history and psychology
Is so important to know….
I think learnin can be another healin
It’s possible

Though many black people stay away from that…
They stay far away from that….
They don’t wanna talk about white supremacy
And I understand…..
I do understand they pay no mind to black power
And they are extremely comfortable with the white power structures….
That’s another condition of ours….

We’re truly a sick race….
A sick black race
Yes we can break a lot of cycles
But there are some of our people who are so lost….
I definitely see that….

Especially in the comments section
On Instagram…..
Even on YouTube…..

This is another reason why
Black people should talk about racism
White supremacy…this is the cause of our trauma….

Before systemic oppression by colonizers
Black people didn’t have the issue
There were wars between our nations
Though it wasn’t color…. I didn’t think there was this
Kind of self hate back then… hate towards each other
I could be mistaken…..

Though

White supremacy did an extra large number of us
Like countless…
We don’t even know we’re sick….
That’s another problem….

Mental health in the black communities
Is need to be addressed especially in the black families….
I see a lot of black people actin like Europeans….
I must admit that I did act like I’m white too….
Not knowin we’re sick….

Honestly
Black people wanna be white
Sorry
Yet it’s the truth…

We’re sick…
We need therapy…..
We need somethin to heal….
And it’s okay to be angry at white supremacy…
We’re suppose to be angry at the system
Though it’s not enough….
We will forever forgive racism….

That’s not good

Cos we’re sick

We’re a sick race….
A sick black race
Do you see how we behave?

All of the types of traumas that it came from
Slavery and colonialism…
Why do you think slave movies Jim Crow films triggered our
Nerves?
It makes our illnesses worsenin….

We’re sick…I’m a part of the black race.. I did wanna be white…I wanted to be a white girl and it is bad…we’ve been programmed whitewashed and it’s not a good thing.. I am so glad that I changed my mind. If I still wanted to be a white girl, I wouldn’t write this poem. I’d be writing the opposite. Black people we are sick. We do have a lot of mental illnesses within our nations all over the world. We never wanted to talk about it though it’s part of our lives…our traumas have been passed down to our offsprings and their future generations. It keeps going. And we wonder why do we behave like this….
I don’t know if saying black people are sick is off code or not. I’m just telling the truth because i love black people. I love my melanin… I feel like I need to tell the truth from the heart.
