Black Americans are Soul People. 

The amount of times I just watched this compilation made by BlackPowerBA. I love us. We are vibrant people with a culture unlike any other.

And that double dutch transition into Whitey’s Lindy Hoppers is the chef’s kiss.

Put some Respeck on my name

Don’t just stare: say something!

How craven and ghastly to want a postcard such as this.

A postcard showing a group of "Strange Fruit" hanging from the trees with a poem written at the bottom. Please take time to read it...it's America's history. The evil and ghastly scene took place in Sabine County, TX 1908.

Billie Holiday - Strange Fruit

Southern trees bear strange fruit

Blood on the leaves and blood at the root

Black bodies swinging in the southern breeze

Strange fruit hanging from the poplar trees

Pastoral scene of the gallant south

The bulging eyes and the twisted mouth

Scent of magnolias, sweet and fresh

Then the sudden smell of burning flesh

Here's a fruit for the crows to pluck

For the rain to gather, for the wind to suck

For the sun to rot, for the trees to drop

Here's a strange and bitter crop

If you [ b l a c k ] reblog this.

don’t care what shade just reblog.
