When I tell you white folks are trying to take over ALL our shit, Including the language that they call us ‘ghetto’ and ‘ignorant’ for using? And they sellin it on teeshirts like a white woman would come up with that phrasing. AAVE is the same language they penalize us for using, denying us opportunities and resources, calling us ignorant, But they put it on a shirt with a BLONDE bitch and SELL IT? I feel kicked in the chest.

The idea that intelligence is linked to English pronunciation is a legacy from colonial thinking.

You know when sometimes you meet someone so beautiful — and then you actually talk to them and five minutes later they’re as dull as a brick; but then there’s other people. And you meet them and you think, “Not bad, they’re okay,” and when you get to know them … their face just, sort of, becomes them, like their personality’s written all over it, and they just — they turn into something so beautiful.

Unsure of what the balance held I touched my belly overwhelmed By what I had chosen to perform But then an angel came one day Told me to kneel down and pray For unto me a man child would be born Woe this crazy circumstance  I knew this life deserved a chance  But everybody told me to be smart Look at your career they said,  Baby use your head But instead I chose to use my heart.
