I agree don’t get ur hopes up but stand the fuque up. we organize for million man march, civil rights but we never marched about what is the biggest reason why we still for the most part are stuck today. our grandparents built the some of the most profitable cities in the country. And all they gave you was drugs, section 8, and imprisonment of millions of nonviolent black males.
PART IIDEUCE IN DIS BITHC:
I KNOW HALF YALL AINT GONE LIKE THIS, MISPELLINGS N ALL BUT…WE DON’T NEED SHIIIIT ELSE TO CRIPPLE US…EVERYONE WAS A F**KING SLAVED, ENDENTURED, WE ARE EQUAL TODAY…WHAT WE NEED IS FOR HISTORY TO BE CORRECTED AND FOR US TO GET OUR SELF IMAGE RIGHT AND HONOR WHO WE ARE..CORRECT THEM BOOKS, TEACH S**T THE RIGHT WAY AND TELL OUR HISTORY AND HOW WE WERE SCIENTIST, DOCTORS, NAVAL SEA CAPT’S NOT HOW WE F**KING PIRATING IN SOMALI….GOOOOD TAKE ME NOW..!!! JESUS…HOSSHHAALLALALLALA…PS IF YALL GOT SOM’N DE–ROG–O” TOEEEREEE TO SAY…570+269+7416…I WILL SET IT OFF ON YO’ PONK ASS…MAN UP…LETS FIX OUR SELF IMAGE AND WALK LIKE THE KINGS AND QUEENS THAT WE ARRRREEEEE!!!
I HATE THIS S**TT I REALLY HATE THIS GOOD S**TT.ALL THESE NIGGAS TALKING BOUGHT SOME REPRERATIONS…WATCH HOW MANY SUPPOSED BLATINOS BIATCHES C** DRANKING MUTHAFUKAS STOP LYING ABOUT DEY RACE…I’M SICK OF THIS B***H REPAIR YO MUTHAF**KING FACE…THEN REPAIR YO’ SELF ESTEEM…WE BLK MAN ALL US…I’M SICK OF IT…AND I HAT TO SEE IT…SO SUCK OFFFFFF!!! BUT A LIL CHECK WOULD BE GOOD…..
DONT GET YA HOPES UP!
I feel that cash money should be the payout for all of my black people..every other race recieved reparations..its so obvious that we deserve ours..and not through education that’s free for all even for my chia pet…its all about cash..
free education/job training…and some land…that’s all we need..
KEEP UP THE GOOD FIGHT
