A moving spoken word that was performed at the Jena 6 rally on 9/20/07 by the artist Ty Gray-El. And for all my females i'm sure that you will appreciate what this brother has to say and for all my brothers out there thats not doing they thing and being real men, take notes and man up!
I'm more than sure that since this trial is relating to the Jena 6 that it will bring about controversial comments, just letting yall know, come with the piece, cause i wont allow comments bashing ANYONE. Thank you to all who showed up today.

  • I appreciate you my brother. When we really start to love our way back up out of slavery's vestiges we will realize how wrong we have been with respect to our women. We are the only race on earth that disrepects its women. We have to change that, immediately!

  • tht was so amzing i mean im speechless because he hit right on the nose evrything he said was nothing less than correct

  • PEACE GREAT WORK

  • olneymike:On the contrary, my study of history is quite adequate. Black people enslaved by America are the only people in the history of the civilized world who were stripped of all their customs, all their culture & all their traditions, taken from their homeland & worked for over 300 years. If you can show me any other people in history who have suffered such a fate I will gladly apologize and come to your Youtube film and publicly sing your intellectual praises.

  • Wow...

    I thought I was a spoken word artist

    WOW...

  • This has to be one of the most powerful and prolific pieces of poetry ever written. My brother, you have captured the essence of how I feel about a black woman.

    I don't think any poem has elicited this much emotion from so many people, ever. Thank you my brother for these messiah-like words. It makes me proud to realize that someone understands. Someone TRULY UNDERSTANDS.
