A hush or maybe a slight hiss is the sound or lack of that I heard today while I returned to work two days after the election. I purposely did not go in on Wednesday it was my official “Can’t Take White People Day”. After the surviving the OJ verdict and the angry mob I faced at work I refused to deal with this once again. With OJ there’s no way I could defend him, guilty or innocent he was a wife beater. But when it comes to Obama I don’t want to hear shit. I will go off and as we say it would be on and popping. So for my own safety and the safety of others I choose to stay home yesterday, I considered my day off my own official holiday.
I had a feeling when I went to work today the climate would be somewhat different and as our elders would say stay true to your feelings. Today was a trip, white people who normally speak to me still spoke but couldn’t look me in the eye; it could have been that silly grin I had going on, who knows. Their conversations were brief and overly aloof. What I did see was office doors were closed and I heard the faint sound of the phrase “I can’t believe it” and they weren’t talking about butter. As the few of us who gave each other imaginary fist pounds and my personal favorite the “O” sign modeled after JayZ’s Hov symbol many of us couldn’t help but notice this separation or segregation of office personnel. As one of my colleagues stated “They are pissed off”. While that may be true, guess what I don’t care, they can all personally Kiss My Ass. I just love blogging I can say what I want and they don’t have to know, how therapeutic!!! The more I think about it the angrier I get and the more hilarious it seems to me that they’re mad. In 230 plus years we get our first black President and they’re mad. Folks, 230 plus years nothing but white men and the first black man and they’re PISSED. They feel violated, discriminated and now fear being the minority. Oops sound familiar!?!?!?
In my opinion white people have no reason to be mad, oh please, grow up. One time in history a black man is ruling this country and you’re losing your damm minds. You want to cry injustice and unfairness. Let me tell you what injustice and unfairness really is: This is so good I have to bullet point it.
• Kidnapped from your homeland
• Robbed of your culture, religion and language
• Permanently separated from your family to the point you don’t even know who your real family is
• Women, men and children raped and tortured
• Denied the ability to read
• Set free with no resources onto an angry mob can someone say KKK
• Treated less than a dog
• Have to sit in the back of everywhere
And some of this happened in the past 40 years which is during this lifetime for some of us.
So white people if you want to be pissed off and feel like you’re being targeted you have nothing to fear. When it comes to injustice we as black people have that game beat. You can only cite two times in which you felt injustice and that was OJ and Obama (coincidentally two O(s)). We on the other hand have centuries we can cite so please stop the bullshit. If you want to trade places with us then go ahead and try. I bet you wouldn’t survive one day being black. So take your whinny, woo is me ass and just suck it up. The President is Black and Fabulous and America will be better off with him.
On another note some may think and rightly so that I write kind of black pantherish, kind of a militant if you will and yes I do; as I said before that’s the beauty of anonymous blogging. I choose to stay anonymous because I still have a daytime job and you can imagine how I would scare whitey with my true feelings. While trying to stay on the topic what I would like to say is despite the majority of my feelings I commend those white people who defied bigotry and prejudices to vote for Obama. As I watched the newscast of Harlem, Chicago and all other parts of the country and the world my heart was filled with so much joy not just for Obama but for the legitimate unity I saw. My hat goes off to you and I applaud your courage to stand up for what you believe is right even when you have others in your circle who disagree. That takes real courage and I want to THANK all of you for thinking beyond and executing as such. Maybe America has a chance and as Obama said we can really be the UNITED States!
