I Used to be mad at the white man

La Négresse is a popular them in late 19th century European art when the continent, so enamored by the beauty and mystique of Africa, were ruminating over how to present our image to the wider public (outside of
slavery and courtesans, commercialism) . Ultimately, they went with how we were perceived in or own culture. The inscription at the base of the bust reads, "Pourquoi naître esclave?" or "Why was I born a slave?" This not a racial question, even today, its a rhetorical one which the sound track illuminates. In the end, its all "madness" and I am completely over it and will be glad when everyone else is too.

These thoughts have been inside for a long time but "airing them" now reminds me of my own healing journey from racial suffering to OneLove.
