Grand Rising

Oxtails (flavored mushrooms) over rice and peas, Mac and cheese, collard greens, and Cornbread

How ia everbody doing today. Blessings to all

The reason why I write about
Racism white supremacy
Cos it needs to be talked about….
I don’t give a fuck about how you feel
Black people have lived through it
And still livin in it today ….

It’s why my black poems about blackness
And racism white supremacy does exist…..

Don’t tell a black person to be quiet
About it….don’t do that…
Stop makin black people feel bad about
Talkin against the systematic oppression

Just cos you feel intimidated
Doesn’t mean you have the right to
Tell us to shut the fuck up….

Like you got the nerve to tell
African diaspora the majority population
There’s no such thing as race
And throw Martin Luther King Jr speech
Quote I have a dream only to live in your denial

The fact is, you would always get us in trouble
When we speak topics like this,
When your true colors show in black history month
When your white fragility blazes across the room
It’s obvious,

I don’t wanna hear it
You know what’s up…
You do know what the fuck is goin on
But you choose to be in an ignorant lane
And act like a victim….

You’re so annoyin

Don’t tell me to stop writin about racism..
You don’t get to tell black poets and writers that they should lose their pen
You don’t get to tell black people not to express their issues and
Concerns..
Black people are humans too…
You are not the only one….

Are we clear?
Racism needs to be talked
Don’t you dare whitewash it either!
I know your tricks…..

So

Racism white supremacy needs to be
In a serious conversation…matter of fact
It need to get the fuck off the planet….
Not with words but with actions
Violent actions meanin bloody wars meanin death
Meanin sacrifice for your own people
Meanin destroy the power and bring back justice
Equality….

But you know
Many black people don’t wanna be
Revolutionized, don’t wanna fight back if necessary
They wanna march pray make speeches forgive and
We shall overcome…cos we have fear in our genes
Too scared of removin the white man…

A lot of us are well trained….

It’s the truth…
And to you and coons
Truth is a hate speech
Y’all be like
Can we just get along?

Like y’all got an excuse for not usin
A critical thinkin….

Nobody wanna hear about
Racism white supremacy
It’s unfortunate

Cos
History got a record deal
How those past events keep playin over and over
Cos people want to repeat it again and again…

Another reason why
Racism isn’t allowed to be the elephant
In the room yet it’s there
We see it
We see color
Cos white supremacy made it so obvious….

I don’t wanna listen to
Skin color doesn’t matter
When it’s there in our faces…
Black people have to deal with this bull shit
On a daily basis….
White people don’t….

Understand that…

GRAND RISING

At the ocean floor off the coast of Grenada stands the underwater sculpture of 26 children holding hands. Titled Vicissitudes, many have attributed the monument to those lost in the Atlantic Slave Trade, though sculptor Jason deCaires Taylor denies this purpose.
