I was replaced at a law firm I worked at because...well, they didn't think I was *suitable* for their environment. made comments that most black people had a problem saying big words like (his) "Schwendler." I had words but couldn't write so here's a repost...

Fight the Powers that be!

Now I hear what you say
and I see it every day
Opressive, anal retentive
white collar thugs
living life lush...
But what about us
It should disgust us
That they mistrust us
Cause they can't be us
When the day of reckoning
is at hand!!!!!!
The man who survived under
the oppressed hand will still
STAND!:peace: :peace:
BLESINSG ON YA HOUSE!
