This country was founded on a profound falsity the vestiges of which remain today. That falsity? That whites are superior and blacks inferior, and therefore, slaves, second class, exiles. But look at us!!!! LOOK AT US!!!! LOOK AT WHAT WE HAVE DONE FROM WHENCE WE COME! Not only do we matter, WE ARE BEAUTIFUL! And when we carry that INSIDE, we can bring back BLACK pride, and we can stop waiting for a culture that perpetually lies to itself to save us. WE SAVE US BECAUSE WE ARE AND WE ARE BEAUTIFUL!
