Chapter 3 - defamation of blackness

Defamation of blackness 

Only our struggle and not our success is on the television.

Multifaceted, there's more than one version of being.

The system is faulty.

If it were truly good, all would be equal.

Spewing lies of history

It locks away ugly truths away, hidden and erased.

My God made ALL colors in His image, He died for ALL 'races' of humans.

Calls us to progressive love and holy brotherly union. 

Defamation of blackness,

An unfair view of what is right.

Until it sees me, us, we,

It shall never have peace within it.
