Brotha Chester. Yep. What's more interestin' to me is this word entered the English dialect/language in 1864. My thinking is to make sure there will no mixing with the soon-to be former slaves. Wonder why?---Kocolicious
The word 'control' comes to mind. We 'get a hump in our back' when it is said the European American controls us. Yet we 'look on' while mass media publicizes our abuse of ourselves, and notably...our own children. But they don't put us in jail...for that abuse. This obtuse contradiction makes one wonder...who is controlling who. Then...we come to our senses with the realization that it is the same 'ole, same 'ole. 'Charlie' is doing the controlling. Just like always. PEACE Jim Chester African Americans for African America http://iaanh2.org African American Pledge of Unity We stand, Together, after left alone in a land we never knew. We Bind ourselves, Together, with the blood and will of Those who have gone before.
