THE 70'S.
WAS BY THE STANDARDS FROM WHERE BLACKS EXITED INTO MAKING THE DREAM OF A BETTER LIFE COME TRUE WAS A GOOD TIME.
JIM CROW THE SEQUEL By June Jordan R.I.P.--Former Teacher At The University At Berkeley
ESSENCE MAGAZINE--September 1995
"An Angry Black woman on the suject of the angry WHITE man"
"JUSTICE DON'T MEAN NOTHING TO A HATEFUL HEART" !
"we needed a way around the hateful heart of america..." "we needed more than freedom because a piece of paper ain' the same as opportunity and education". "and so thirty years ago we agitated and we agitated until the president said, "we seek....not just equality, as a right and a theory, but equality as a fact and as a result."
"and a great rejoicing rose like a spirit dancing fresh and happy on the soon-to-be- integrated-and-most-uppity ballroom floor of these United States... And black folks everywhere dressed up in African Pride and optimism...... and got ready for "equality as a fact". But three decades later, and come to find out we never got invited to the party we never got included in "the people" we never got no kind of affirmative action worth more than a spit in the wind and yesterday the new man in the White House/the new President declared, "What we have done for women and minorities is a good thing, but we must respond to those who feel discriminated against.....This is a psychologically difficult time for the so-called angry White man".
"CATCH that angry White man and tell him "Get a grip" !
not all, but wayyyyyyy too many are stll angry.
in part, they were angry as they saw jobs going to blacks. jobs they did not want, or ever expect them to have.
PEOPLE LIKE MR. COSBY(who i do have admiration)AND OTHERS ARE NO DIFFERENT FROM ME AND YOU TO THE REMAINING "ANGRY WHITE MEN".
oh, in their smoked filled back rooms today they are probably updated using "dap", not handshakes, saying that boy sho do us proud! yeahh, he sho told the "....ers" off.and we sho thank those other ones on message boards and other places, those"....graz" who do the same everyday, telling them other "....raz's off".
THEY LOVE THIS TYPE(the negative aspect) ALMOST MORE THAN THE ARTIST WHO FEED THEIR PORTFOLIO'S.
