The Great Pax Whitie - Nikki Giovanni
In the beginning was the word And the word was Death And the word was nigger And the word was death to all niggers And the word was death to all life And the word was death to all peace be still
The genesis was life The genesis was death In the genesis of death Was the genesis of war be still peace be still
In the name of peace They waged the wars ain’t they got no shame
In the name of peace Lot’s wife is now a product of the Morton company nah, they ain’t got no shame
Noah packing his wife and kiddies up for a holiday row row row your boat But why’d you leave the unicorns, noah Huh? why’d you leave them While our Black Madonna stood there Eighteen feet high holding Him in her arms Listening to the rumblings of peace be still be still
CAN I GET A WITNESS? WITNESS? WITNESS? He wanted to know And peter only asked who is that dude? Who is that Black dude? Looks like a troublemaker to me And the foundations of the mighty mighty Ro Man Cat holic church were laid
hallelujah Jesus nah, they ain’t got no shame
Cause they killed the Carthaginians in the great appian way And they killed the Moors “to civilize a nation” And they just killed the earth And blew out the sun In the name of a god Whose genesis was white And war wooed god And america was born Where war became peace And genocide patriotism And honor is a happy slave cause all god’s chillun need rhythm And glory hallelujah why can’t peace be still
The great emancipator was a bigot ain’t they got no shame And making the world safe for democracy Were twenty millon slaves nah, they ain’t got no shame
And they barbecued six million To raise the price of beef And crossed the 38th parallel To control the price of rice ain’t we never gonna see the light
And champagne was shipped out of the East While kosher pork was introduced To Africa Only the torch can show the way
In the beginning was the deed And the deed was death
And the honkies are getting confused peace be still
So the great white prince Was shot like a nigger in texas And our Black shining prince was murdered like that thug in his cathedral While our nigger in memphis was shot like their prince in dallas And my lord ain’t we never gonna see the light The rumblings of this peace must be stilled be stilled be still
ahh Black people ain’t we got no pride?

Music Shuffle
Tagged by @streetcornertwoam
Rules: put your music on shuffle and write the first 13 songs that come up then choose 13 people to tag!
I make zero promises for how this is going to turn out:
Sell Me A Coat-- David Bowie
Mayfair 2-- Nick Drake
The Minor Bee-- Lunasa
All God’s Chillun Got Rhythm-- artist is lost, off of The Ultimate Jazz Archive Set 25
Discman-- 骨架的 (no idea where that came from... vaporwave isn’t generally my thing)
Sally’s Song (movie version)-- Danny Elfman
Fear of the Dark-- Iron Maiden
Can You Feel My Love-- Tamaki Nami
Master and Slave-- Cherry Poppin’ Daddies
MetalMan (Techno Remix)-- MegaMan 2
Strip My Mind-- Red Hot Chili Peppers
Fast As I Can-- Great Big Sea
Brain Damage-- Rockabye Baby! (Pink Floyd)
I did skip one: “unknown” by “_______” that was techno and had no lyrics. The perils of still being part of the limewire generation. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Anyway, I’m not gonna tag anyone because I’m tired and not really feeling the social aspect of this. If you want to do the thing, go for it, and let me know.

All God's Chillun' Got Rhythm from A Day at the Races
A door opened for me tonight - yep, I traded in my tango shoes for lindy-hop plimsolls and boy-o-boy, did I enjoy myself. I didn't look much like this; more like a frolicking deer trying to stand upright. Think Bambi on ice. But sorry hepcats, I'm definitely coming back for more.
