—"y'all wanna know how i stayed alive all these years? i'm out there, speaking on injustices, writing to the congressman, rectifying the evils that i can—wanna know why y'all not seeing my dead body on the news?"
THE BLACK PERSON'S MANIFESTO:
to preserve my life, I WILL NOT
—play my music too loud
—sell CDs
—have a broken tail
—sleep in my car
—reach for my ID
—play with a toy gun and be tall for my age
—leave a bachelor's party
—sell cigarettes
—buy skittles
or other criminal offenses i have come to know only by watching my brother's fall dead like leaves in the streets.
"now that's how to stay alive, children."
