Chris Brown and Rihanna...
Their Ultra-Dysfunctional “Relationship”
Is Precisely What’s Wrong
With Black America
Yes, I know there’s dysfunctionalism across White America, however that’s
irrelevant and meaningless to the plight of Black folks; if White folks,
collectively, have got a cold or some perhaps even the flu, we Black folks must
have Cancer, Tuberculosis, Polio, Leprosy.
I know, I know, I know, the poster
boy n’ girl are “Black Royalty” in the sometimes trifling’ world of Black
popular culture.
Think James Dean and Elizabeth Taylor, circa
1955, dipped in chocolate. Billy Dee n’
Diana Ross - updated. And to an even greater extent, Brown and Rihanna are “crossover” stars who “represent” and are
symbolic of “Black love” and adored by kids all over the planet, but their tale
is littered with acts of immaturity, violence and stupidity.
Ken n’ Barbie bronzed, and as hollow inside as the
Mattel dolls.
Nonetheless, I’m sorry I’ve got to be a cloud on a sunny day
mon, but these two full-grown teenagers, their
adult-child melodrama is sad to say a tragic example of the ills n’ woes which
plague my people - we’re so ignorant and uninformed that we can’t decipher
folks are laughing at us, not with us.
Did you dig that... laughing at us, not with us.
This pair’s affair, and pop-culture’s elevation of them,
the widespread acceptance and adulation of these two Buffoons... their
notoriety and popularity, it not only reflects upon our “Black world” - but all
the loooooove they receive condones the upside-down/inside-out ass-backward world they, you,
we dwell in.
Yes, the whole soap opera glorifies our contemporary Back culture’s dysfunctionalism.
Their affair embodies the thuggarazation, the ghettoization and ultimately the tragic “niggerrazation”
of our once proud Afro-American culture.
Can I get the Last Poets to help me...
Niggers come in from work and change into pimping clothes
And hit the streets to make some quick change
Niggers change their hair from black to red to blond
And hope like hell their looks will change
Nigger kill other niggers
Just because one didn’t receive the correct change
Hey-sit back , wee-lax
before you start demanding they pull my Black man card, demand back my
secret “Black man” decoder ring and my White Canvas Chuck Taylors and my sacred
“Cake cutter” afro- comb...
Of course I’m not saying they’re the only representatives
of Black love; we’ve got The First Family -
the Obamas. Or even
But you know, like I know... the “Black family” seldom, 1
in 4, 1 in 5 “families” looks like the Obamas.
And our intellectual base defends and rationalizes that
horrific fact, while we all know it’s a pre-determining indicator of impending
hard-times/the chaos we see around us - broken, busted, maleless
families. And it’s so pervasive that we, yes we, act
like it’s the way it ought be. Women
don’t yearn for a good man, a husband, a father for their children... Black men
don’t desire families, they just want stables of whores... yeah, “trifling” is the word I’m looking for.
I wouldn’t want my son to grow up to be like young lost Mr Brown, an abuser of women. This is a crime which ought to
be, in a more-perfect world, about as low as a coward-with-testicles can go.
And I sure-as-hell wouldn’t want my daughter bringing this mancub
home. And sad to say, the last porcelain princess I’d want my little girl to
emulate and imitate is a “lady” like Rihanna.
Sorry.
“Bimboism” is Rihanna, she personifies the term “object.” coupled with her back-alley low standards, this insane ability of her’s to “stand by” her punk. Please! To accept the abuse of a popular pretty-boy weasel as she does - is a disservice to young black ladies who horrifically take their clueless-cue from her, and only encourages the Black neanderthals.
Forgive me, my old man didn’t say
a damn thing about sparing the feelings of so-called grown folks. And if you
think I owe these two clowns an apology - you’re crazy. It’s sad we Black folks
can’t stand the “Bill Cosby” truth. We got to have “Big Momma” sit us down n’
rub our tummies... blame and attribute all our individual ills and woes to the
White devil.
The White man didn’t backhand Rihanna
- that piss-poor example of a man Chris Brown did, and his boys laughed along
with him afterward.
Boys is the key word there.
Look, I spend my day working in a inner city/urban/Black,
right off MLK Blvd, public middle school, been there for almost a decade, and I
can say to you with all certainty that both these cartoon characters are
admired and praised by the rank n’ file student body... his abuse of her is
rationalized, minimized and justified... by girls even - “you know how girls can be talkin’ Mr Cortez, you know she said some stuff to make him hit her...
”
Let’s not treat this in some superficial manner, “our” as
in Black folks, our institutions and organizations which still shine a
spotlight on them. The acceptance, embracement, anointment and immolation of
this couple... are a large significant slice of what’s wrong with us. A people
already running far behind in the race... and we lower our standards.
“Women are born, ladies are made... Men are born, gentlemen are made.” Hand-crafted by the absolute
love of parents, that’s two people – who have as a top-priority preparing their
children to live a better life than they did. Horrifically, our Black American
culture has been stripped down to what we see today, babies, mommas and my Niggah.
This is our own branding of ourselves, not White society’s.
Honestly, I seldom if ever inquire of a Black child, and
for that matter Latino... “where’s your dad…?” The
answer tends to be sad, predictable and half of the time, tragic.
We have three or four lost generations of babies having babies, then
raising babies who’re having babies... without a good man in sight. No?
While let’s admit we’ve redefined what a “man” is, what a
“lady” is, what a “husband” is. Predictably we’ve redefined the “value” of a
formal education, of “mastering” a vocational craft…
This is what “my” generation did. Yes we helped get a
Black man in the prestigious Oval Office, but we can’t get our own kids out of
the dean’s office, the detective’s office, the undertaker’s office… When I
start lying, sit me down.
I’m telling you, history will depict the
ultra-materialistic Black me/my/X n’ Y generations as weak, soft, gold diggers
who turned our focus on the mundane - on furs, Platinum and Porches, and walked
around with weak, lame-ass excuses to justify our simplistic pawn-like
behavior, a behavior of which our great grand parents would be ashamed.
Niggers act so coooool and slick
Causing white people to say:
What makes you niggers act like that?
Niggers act like you ain’t never seen nobody act before
But when it comes to acting out revolution
Niggers say: ‘I can’t dig them actions!’
Niggers are scared of revolution
Chris is so-cool, and Rihanna’s
so-very hot - exactly, precisely what Black American culture desperately needs,
another playboy and his bunnie. Not a fireman and
nurse, not housewife and dentist, but two airheads who have the ability to sing
n’ dance and the people throw them money, so they’re “rich.”
What more can one ask for, right?
Now, granted, I clearly understand there need to be
examples of Black beauty and success, but good god, are you serious, this is
what passes as an ebony fairy tale,
for our youngsters to aspire to?
This is tabloid sheet Jet
Magazine Buffoonery.
I ask this question with all sincerity... is there any
behavior that shames us?
If not the mass-production of daddyless babies, then what about the shooting gallery Chi-Town has regressed to? Or for that matter, any town or city we predominant? Is there no shameful behavior that we, as the Black court of public opinion, are willing to cop to?
Let me go back to the Last poets:
Niggers do a lot of shootin’
Niggers do a lot of shootin’
Niggers shoot off at the mouth
Niggers shoot pool, niggers shoot craps
Niggers cut around the corner and shoot down the street
Niggers shoot sharp glances at white women
Niggers shoot dope into their arm
Niggers shoot guns and rifles on New Year’s Eve
A new year that is coming in
The white police will do more shooting at them
I bet anyone within eyeshot of this that Black girls under
the age of 14 watch more NBA/Atlanta Housewives type TV then they do “Disney”.
They don’t want to be Tiana, or
They want to be 21st century renditions of the 20th
century stereotypical “Sapphire,” but now, the last few generations don’t read,
and have no clue “who n’ what” that derogatory image is. Just as they’ve no clue
who was Amos n’ Andy nor Stepin’
Fetchit - which in itself explains why they put on
minstrel shows in NFL endzones every week during the
Fall.
That’s right my friend, this is another episode of “Negroes Lost in Space!” Non-thinking Negroes who call not only each other “Niggahs” endlessly and relentlessly, but then call Asians
and Jews Niggers, too.
Niggers are players, niggers are players, are players
Niggers play football, baseball and basketball
While the white man cuttin’ off their balls
I can’t count the times I’ve witnessed our Black kids
calling White teachers and administrators “niggers.” Latino Kids go around
calling each other Niggers and
calling Black kids Niggers, and Black kids defend it. Please note, most are
reading, writing and doing arithmetic 3, maybe 4 grade levels behind... go
figure.
And they mirror, as in act like
and talk like the adults in their households, on the block, in church. Not the White folks across town.
Is it really a Gumby-like stretch if I say our children
have been betrayed by their recent lackadaisical ancestors, for without
question, we’ve not prepared our offspring to compete within Mainstream US society. It seems we’re more suited for and deliberately
prepared for life on the Black reservation.
