I'm not as comfortable w/ the poem as it looks like I'm supposed to be being black and all but I shall keep those thoughts to myself.

If a little white girl can point to instances where Blacks came and stole, raped, and killed to obtain all they have and reinforce their wealth and privalege with institutionalized racism, then by all means let her do it, and I won't say a word. A little white girl can't do it, TRUTHFULLY. This lil' sista did it, without having to lie.
PLEASE show us where the poem is wrong. Black pride is not wrong. Telling the truth is not wrong. And being brilliant is certainly not wrong.
