Yes
Black history makes me mad
But at the same time I crave
For more….it’s nothin wrong
With that…my anger is accurate….
I wanna learn
and then be able to teach
Others through my poems….
I wanna encourage them
To read, to do your own
Research before
Our stories get wiped out…..
Racism is doin it right now….
They’re whitenin our melaninated past
Off the grounds….that way
White folks won’t feel guilty….
They never want our power….
Though
They’re losin theirs…
Cos of extinction
Of birth rates decline
and don’t let me forget
White people has been the
Real minority the entire time….
You see,
This part plays a
Role in this black history
Cos they have that eugenics
Plan….they wanna get rid of
Us cos we’re too crowded….
You know genocide..
Their genetic survival….
I k know
Black history is
Sad, it brings out the
Madness in us
However
There’s a positive side
Too, when we look at
Ourselves beyond
Trauma and self destruct,
We’ve been innovative
We’ve been a helpin hand
We’ve been the rhythm and blues
Most of all, we’re the original humans
Walkin around the world, real life artifacts
Breathin air….
The trees knew
The plants knew
The whole sky knew…..
And it’s why
White folks
And other races wanna snatch
Our thrones….
Knowledge of self is important
It’s why I wanna help black people
Through poetry
As a way of healin
Even if they don’t wanna read
Or hear me out
Or think I’m makin profits of our black pain..
Cos
I want to…..
I wanna try to answer the questions
We asked….
And I love being black……
I see our heartache
I may not have all the experiences
But I advocate us
Our blackness
Our voice….
Our humanness….
We ain’t three fifths a human
Ok?
To me,
Our children
The races that came from us
Are actually disrespectin
Us, the parents
We gave birth to humanity
and the human race….
And white supremacy
Is mad disrespect
Big time disrespect….
