Strange Fruit

Black people do NOT hang themselves.

More to the point – Black people do not lynch themselves.

The cops would like us to believe differently. Of course. The authorities are ultra quick to dismiss these as suicides.

Look how many come up in a quick internet search. This is hardly comprehensive.

Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.
~ George Santayana

 I realize that the billionaire class needs to keep those of us in the lower echelons fighting amongst ourselves. If we're battling over the color of our neighbor's skin or their religion or who they like to knock boots with or what they have in their underdrawers, then we're too busy to see that these Richie Rich motherfuckers are robbing us blind.

Those mutant moolah maggots want to return the U.S. to a gilded age when slavery was legal, women were the property of their fathers or husbands, before Native Americans were considered U.S. citizens, and it was illegal for us all to vote. You know, back when rich white assholes owned the playing field and made all the rules.

They already have their damn mansions, yachts the size of aircraft carriers, golden monuments to themselves, hot and cold running servants, and blow up doll wives. They also need us dead? Who's gonna shake up their fresh Watenshi gin martinis? They might sprain an eyebrow if they try doing it on their own.

 Rather shortsighted of these twats wouldn't you say? 

Strange Fruit, Billie Holiday
