The Mother of America

Unspoken Wisdom Speaks

When did the American Negro woman, the mother of America become a b---h and a hoe? When did our young women decide it was acceptable to be depicted as an unworthy mindless sex craving pestilence upon greater society, let alone our village community?

When did the mother of America, the Negro woman become a b---h and a hoe? When did our young women begin to allow their self-respect to be lured away from them by the sweet words and deeds of a young man who doesn’t respect them and meant them absolutely no good, whatsoever, even when she is the sole provider of the family?

When did the American Negro woman, the mother of America become a b---h and a hoe? When did mother stop teaching her daughter to demand respect from young men or did they simply follow her example when it came to catering hand and foot to her brother's needs?

When did the mother of America, the Negro woman become a b---h and a hoe? When did mother stop being a nurturer, teacher, and a glowing loving example to our young offsprings; was it seen in her willingness to do, whatever, it took to cuddle, pamper, and protect her son while instilling in her daughter the grittiness of self-sufficiency; a tool necessary to confront the enormous challenges awaiting her in the venomous arms of greater society; while leaving her vulnerable to her son’s outright disgraceful, jealous and unjustified contempt?

When did the mother of the earth (Negro Woman), become a b---h and hoe?

Powerful write Mr. McIntyre. I do agree with 2B. I also believe that the "syndrome" is not only still alive to this day but it has evolved into something I pray we can truly overcome.Thank you for sharing this.

Wow! A powerful, thought provoking write, Sir! As I have often suggested, we cannot save our children until we rebuild our village communities with the truth of our story. Let us remain steadfast in the purpose we are still here to achieve. Thanks for sharing. Peace and Love, mlowe5

Damn. Hit the nail ...on the head. We MUST regain, rebuild and retain. We must retrain. We must restrain ...keep the hoe boys from running the show. Not an easy road to travel.
