TO KEEP YOUR BLACKS BLACKER THAN BLACK …

TO KEEP YOUR BLACKS BLACKER THAN BLACK …
YOU MUST BURY THEM BURY THEM DEEP!
SUBMERGE THEM IN THE DARKEST OF SPACES.
ALIEN IN MIND, AND UNEARTHLY IN APPEARANCE,
LAYERING THEM ONE UPON ANOTHER.
FLESH AGAINST FLESH, METAL AGAINST METAL.
THREE MONTHS IS IDEAL, BUT SIX IS THE BETTER.
AS STARVATION HAS CULLED THE WEAK, AND
DEPRESSION HAS CLAIMED THEIR HEARTS –
THEY ARE PREPARED WHEN EMERGING FROM MOUTH OF
THE BEHEMOTH LIMP, FOUL, AND FORELORN. REEKING OF
THE MALODOROUS STENCH OF A SNAPPED HUMAN SPIRIT-
IT IS THEN THAT THEY ARE PRIME FOR RE-EDUCATION.

TO KEEP YOUR BLACKS BLACKER THAN BLACK …
YOU MUST PASS LEGISLATION,
CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS,
AND COURT DECISIONS BARRING FREEDOM.
LETTERS ENDORSINGTHE RACIALIZATION OF SLAVERY,
LAWS THAT ARE ANTI-MISCEGENATION. USE THE PEN,
AND USE IT WELL WHILE IT IS GAINED YOU YOUR FREEDOM IT IS CONTINGENT ON THE REMOVAL OF THEIRS.
SIGN IT! SIGN IT AWAY.

TO KEEP YOUR BLACKS BLACKER THAN BLACK …
YOU MUST WALK AMONG THEM LIKE GOD’S. PROVOKING AWE AND FEAR, BASKING IN THE PRIVILEGE OF A METICULOUSLY CRAFTED SOCIAL CONSTRUCT. ALLOWANCES ACCESSIBLE WITH THE SLIGHTEST NOD, WINK, COMMENT, OR INNUENDO. TAKE COMFORT IN A WORLD IN WHICH BACKROOM DEALS AND GOOD OLE’ BOY POLITICS ARE THE MORTAR OF A TOWER OF BABEL KNOWN AS RACE. WHERE SOCIAL AND CIVIC MISDEALINGS SCAR THE FACE OF LIBERTY JAGGED. LEAVING A TRAIL OF BLOOD FROM LIBERTY HALL TO PENNSYLVANIA AVENUE. STAINING THE MAP OF AMERICA WITH SILENT CONCESSION, AND NATIONWIDE ACCEPTANCE OF WHITE PRIVILEGE.

TO KEEP YOUR BLACKS BLACKER THAN BLACK…
YOU MUST HATE THEM. HATE THEM WITH A PASSION THAT QUAKES THE MARROW OF YOUR BONES. THAT OVERTURNS YOUR STOMACH. HATE THEM WITH ZEAL OF CONVICTION THAT IS ENCOURAGED BY RELIGION, SOCIETY, AND THE HEART. HATE THEIR BODIES, THEIR EXPRESSION, THEIR ASTHETIC. MIMIC, BUT POINT OUT THE MEDIOCRITY. BE WELCOMING, BUT ALWAYS WITHDRAWN. COVET THEIR BODIES, BUT NEVER SUCCUMB TO THEIR BEAUTY.
LOVE THEIR MUSIC, DANCE, DIALECT, AND EXPRESSION – BUT CORRECT THEM. CORRECT THEM WITH COMMUNITY ACTION GROUPS, COALITIONS, COUNCILS, AND ADVISORY BOARDS THAT WARN OF THE DANGERS OF INTERGRATION, MISCEGENATION, AND DETROIT RHYTHUMS. ADHOC THE HAVE NOTS, AND CRITIQUE THE CULTURED – FIXING A MINDSET OF “IF THEY WOULD ONLY” BE WHAT THEY HAVE NEVER BEEN. THESE ARE THE THINGS THAT MUST BE DONE, WILL BE DONE, HAVE BEEN DONE TO KEEP YOUR BLACKS BLACKER THAN BLACK.
