This was written by a black gentleman in Texas and is so funny. What a great sense of humor...
And creative!!!
When U Black, U Black!
When I was born, I was BLACK
When I grew up, I was BLACK
When I went in the sun, I stayed BLACK
When I got cold, I was BLACK
When I was scared, I was BLACK
When I was sick, I was BLACK
And when I die, I'll still be BLACK
NOW, you 'white' folks . .. .
When you're born, you're PINK
When you grow up, you're WHITE
When you go in the sun, you get RED
When you're cold, you turn BLUE
When you're scared, you're YELLOW
When you get sick, you're GREEN
When you bruise, you turn PURPLE
And when you die, you look GREY
So why y'all be callin' us
C O L O R E D Folks?
" So why y'all be callin' us
C O L O R E D Folks?"
Because that is being Politically Correct.
Good points though.

I have tried all my life to understand what an African American is and I still don't understand. Taking the American part away makes black people something they have never been since most of ours were born here and therefor never were African.
I think it is really sure that African-American is some kind of PC talk which is liberal dreamed up by progressives.

I don't know what you should call yourself. I never call myself anything unless I am filling out one of those government provided multiple choice things and have to select Caucasian. Whoops they have swung that one to white, haven't they.

It is all a game! I know two African-Americans personally. One is from Kenya, the other is from South Africa. Both have become U.S. citizens, they consider themselves to be Americans.
