Bringing you more angry Black Afrakaness than you can shake a stick at


AIM: KemetIbutho
----------------------------------------
You have to remember it wasn't just the Rodney King situation. When that acquittal verdict came down it came on the heels of the Latasha Harlans case. It was like gasoline being tossed on something that was already simmering. Latasha Harlans was an honor roll student who was killed by a Korean grocer as she was on her way to school. She was murdered in cold blood. Not only did the grocer get a chance to be bailed out of jail, but also she was only given 5 years probation and she was allowed to leave the country. That was unheard of in any murder case I had ever seen.

What was really cold about the whole thing was that on the same day of the Latasha Harlan's verdict, on a different floor in the courtroom, a white man was sentenced to more time for abusing his dog than this woman got for killing this young Black girl. This man had to do jail time. This woman got probation and was allowed to leave the country. It said to us that a dog's life was worth more than a Black child's life. This is what people were looking at. This is what people were paying attention to. So people were hot but willing to wait and see how things played out with the Rodney King verdict. We wanted to see if they were going to continue to push this line of no respect and true understanding of humanity when it comes to dealing with African Americans. After the verdict we saw exactly what they felt about us.

Love is contraband in Hell,
cause love is an acid
that eats away bars.

But you, me, and tomorrow
hold hands and make vows
that struggle will multiply.

The hacksaw has two blades.

The Shotgun has two barrels.

We are pregnant with freedom.

We are a conspiracy.
