Mother Africa’s Shame

Mother Africa’s Shame
By: KB 2/24/05



Beautiful black skin with blond hair and blue contact tinted eyes
These are the things that make mother Africa cry.

Weep a sorrowful, soul felt cry……
Mourning children stolen in the night

Weaves, extensions, braids and locks
Toil in the sun …harvesting a painful white crop….
Today slinging a brand new slavery in the form of rocks.

Ghana, Chad, Zimbabwe, Rhodesia
Give witness to hardships, stress and toil….working to fruition a land that’s not our soil.
Whipping, castration, rape and crosses burned
Motherland offers outstretched arms, calling….crying for your return.
