Me and mine been protecting your backs for generations...

You protecting ours too?

Do read BLACK INDIANS: A HIDDEN HERITAGE...

Quit treating your allies like they're enemies, your enemies like they're friends...

Relearn what is truly our shared history etc.

Not easy to be us, in the midst of white folk, and so many stuck on 'stupid' at that!

I'm very late on this, but I'll unequivocally declare that I support black love--although I confess the term may have a different meaning for different people. I define it as love for our people as well as our families and history, music, culture, etc.

That written, I believe loving our black family members, friends, history, music, etc., doesn't preclude us from loving our nonblack brothers and sisters as well and what they bring to the table.

I do believe we have all been created in God's image, which means we are all siblings regardless of subjective racial demarcations. Black love is fine but I don't stop there. I try to practice love and respect for all of my brothers and sisters of all races.

Extending my love to everyone alive today or who ever lived would make my love rather worthless, don't you think?

And for the folk who can't CONCEIVE of a black person loving black WITHOUT so-called hating white - you're wrong. I can love my man and not hate yours. I do it everyday.
