Went to a tea party with my my boy Jeff and lived to youtube it. We were posing as College Republicans interested in learning more about the party and thus Jeff was supposed to be my white decoy who would make it easier for me to talk to these folks. I think he got a little over zealous though and you can tell by his cut off shirt and flowing chest hair.  Anyway, I think we made some frenemies.  Watch.

Why is it that we tend to only trace black history back to slavery and colonial times? As if that was the origin of black people…?

It is only after the deepest darkness that the greatest light can come; it is only after extreme grief that the greatest joy can come; it is only after slavery and prison that the greatest appreciation of freedom can come.
