The new "whitopia" is the commodification of black and brown consciousness, ask Michael Franti and his bird friend.

We don't demonize Fetty Wap, because if his experience gets politicized it will be a million times more transgressive than any of your rallies against pink dolphin abuse.

Granola bar vegans are mad corny. My pops grew up vegan and it wasn't by choice; rice n beans in a state of emergency, they celebrate with filet mignon.

Vegan nachos are more problematic than popeye's chicken.

Fresh air jordans out of the box, fuck jesus sandals. Our bodies resignify what we wear. Believe me when i say im aware of the (sweat)shops.. my mother works at one.

We love Badu, she is so fly, but Keysha Cole is my wifey.

Cant lecture us on intersectionality if you feel uncomfortable listening to Richard Pryor.

your native tongues affiliation is Tribe and De La', cool.. but please read ngugi wa thiong'o, amy goodman is not that "special".

Yes we like boxing, i fuck with Cotto and Mayweather, we box, therefore one of my favorite books is Existence in Black: An Anthology of Black Existential Philosophy by Lewis Gordon.

Larry Byrd & Macklemore & Dear White People & Your name here ______

No extreme sports needed. Adrenaline from 1200 years of running, watch my back.

Madame Sata, Lapa in the 20's, not the Castro district. Not Lapa in the 00's.

Grew up between pimps and hoes, epistemology of the doobie. 

Way more comfortable with the Mac Dre crowd than with the Ben Harper one. Don't be surprised i can deconstruct Fanon with closed eyes and still sing to Ja-Rule. 

You have officially been sterilized.

We represent the political and spiritual significance of booty shaking.

You are just a dark snow bunny. Pet adoption.
