Y’all Mad, Huh?

I ain’t gone lie.

I’m eyeing white people hella suspiciously.

I can’t distinguish between ally or white supremacist.

It’s stressful.

My head is spinning just thinking about it

Who knew an election could have you fearing for your life more than usual?

Oh, you’re mad that things aren’t going your way?

Try hundreds of years of disenfranchisement and oppression

Try progressing while enduring constant harassment

Try having war declared against you

Try being legislated against; going from 3/5 of a human being to second class citizen.

Try building an entire country brick by miserable brick and then being told you don’t belong.

Y’all mad?

We’ve been mad

But we don’t arm ourselves and surround buildings with guns over dumb shit

We don’t incite civil war

We don’t intimidate

We just want to live and enjoy a piece of the pie we helped bake

Y’all mad?

Hell we’ve been mad

It’s time to get active like our predecessors and stay that way

It’s time to ascend
