We live in a nation that programs everyone, including us, to despise us. It is unrealistic to think we black Americans grew up in the same nation as white Americans, yet somehow were immune to the anti-black brainwashing that appears every day on TV, in movies, and on the front page of newspapers and magazines.
But, this is an inconvenient truth. We are cool with YT being the devil. But, us too? Naw, we prefer to believe that YT is the devil and that we black folks are some kind of black gods. So, we have created a new art form out of blaming white folks, jews, mexicans, asians, arabs, other black folks --- anybody else to avoid having to deal with the real deal which is that I Hate Me.
We love calling each other niggers and have even elevated it in our sick minds to a term of endearment. That's my ******! Or, that's my boy! Or, whazzup up, dog!
We write songs of love to our black woman, who we loving call bitch, or ho, or girl. If we don't write the songs, we will at least buy the CDs. Young brothers have made millions off of us buying their songs of praise for our self-hatred.
How can I be taught to stop hating me and to love me? Like the Matrix, this is not something that anyone else can show me. I have to see it for myself. Like any other addict, I will just keep falling lower and lower until I am ready to admit that it is I --- not my supplier --- who is killing Me.
