Yeah I had to say it and ask for it explicitly. This is the i am a black man poem because I want you to hear it. It is something that I am aware of every single day. One of the questions that I ask white people is how often they think about being white and the answer is always the same. They dont think about it all.
I think about being black every second of every day and its not so much that I am thinking about it but more the case that the world is constantly reminding me.
I noticed one of the things you have to do is completely ignore the world which I dont know how that is possible. I need the world because I am co-creating my existence. I would rather we have one where we all get along and we are productive together.
Do you think that sounds like a good plan. I hope so because that is the only plan that I am on and I want you on board. So whats it gonna be. See you on the winning side of just being you.
