(MESSAGE TO THE AFRICAN AMERIKKKAN/BLACK PEOPLE/NIGGAS)
THE MUSIC FOR THIS PART OF THE COURSE...
Gil Scott Heron - Pieces Of a Man [full album][HQ]: http://youtu.be/9pZSQ3NOXbQ

Listen and listen well African-Amerikkkan/black people/niggas.
You have become your own worst enemy.
You have become the main tool for your destruction, having declared war on yourself.
The things that you find important have become the basis for your separation as a nation.
Your religion, your shoes and where you live are not important as long as there is any shred of you being unequal, being discriminated against.
The state of permanent short term memory loss that you exhibit in your dealings with the white government, with the white religion and white history in general seems to have gone systematic.
Just as Willie Lynch said, it has perpetuated itself.
You have become a nation of people who have no nation... No allegiance except to foolishness.
I am not saying these things to tear you down, I am saying them to try and get you to pick yourself up out of the lowest echelons and rise yourself as high as the stratosphere.
To soar above and beyond.
To get you to see the futility of hating your brother or your sister to the point of wishing them dead, of working to make it happen.
This seems to be where we are now.
The average African-Amerikkkan/black person/nigga has no true idea of who he really is in history.
Believing himself Hamitic when he is in fact the prototypical.
Adam was African and Noah was an African descendant just as every man and woman on this planet is today.
Yet African-Amerikkkan/black/nigga preachers still teach this bull.
The youth today don't pay attention to the relevant things because it is the way they have been conditioned, it is the same way that many of their parents were conditioned.
To hate themselves.
Hair, lips and even their African-Amerikkkan/black/nigga souls.
Now you can take this any way you want but I had to bring it this way to get you to listen, to read.
It is directly connected to slavery, segregation and the peaceful civil rights movement in which an empty equality was achieved.
A shattered dream realised.
In a courtroom, at school and in life a white life has more value than yours.
That's just how it is.
It's because even you see it that way having been taught to think that integration requires you to be white.
Get that good hair, wear white man's names on your clothes.
Be his cheerleader.
Kill your brother and tear your sister down.
It's time to let go of the titty of white society and become who we are supposed to be.
To stop accepting anything less.
To put down the colors, the guns, the bamboolery and tomfoolery.
To stop helping lend a hand in our eradication.
To truly become the boss of these streets and the glass and concrete empires that adorn so many city skyline.
When one rises he rises three more ought to be our motto.
If I die today make this be the piece that survives to the future.
That this becomes my swan song.
Listen and listen well for I am and have never been African Amerikkkan or a nigga.
I am no longer a black man...
I am Prototypical hue-man born of the cosmos.
This is my planet and I have come to speak to my people.
Again I say, Listen well.
