the red baron
my aunt told me when she lived in Harlem in the early 60s all the lazy " blame whitey" people who sat on the brownstones doing nothing daily ridiculed her for being a " working girl" while they later on raised generations on welfare . she busted her ass cleaning houses and babysitting and landed a postal job that enabled her to buy a nice home in long island. she migrated from the Jim crow south and even though she lived through racism we will never encounter and the pre civil rights era she had the common sense to do for self while those who laughed at her for being a working girl always had their hands out on welfare never doing much but blaming the white man. so until we stop looking for that fictitious 40 acres and a mule and start doing for self we will always remain powerless under a country our ancestors built for free.
