Jean Grae/ Talib Kweli - Black GIrl Pain (by malikgod)
I forgot how tremendous this song is ‘til it came up on this Hurricane Jean mixtape.
“Fist raised, caramel shining, in all our glory/ For Mauritius, St, Helena; my blood is a million stories/ Winnie for Joan and for Edie, for Norma, Leslie, Ndidi/ For Auntie Betty, for Melanie; all the same family/ Fiona, Jo Burg, complex of mixed girls/ For surviving thru every lie they put into us now/ The world is yours and I swear I will stand focused/ Black girls, raise up your hands; the world should clap for us”
