Dilute

 Dilute 

I used to 

Think love is love 

Love has no color 

Til I learned about racism..

A whole lot…

Now I see a big picture 

If I were still 

Ignorant and naive 

I would still think 

Black people 

Are racist….

I would still think 

If the truth still hurts 

My feelings cos 

I like white men 

Or Asian men 

Or any kind of race of men….

I would still have never 

Understood why 

Black person and a white person

Can be together….

I have learned 

The damage that comes 

With an interracial relationship…

I learned it was a trick 

Abuse 

Only to dilute the blooodline of melanin 

For white people to survive….

Even the other races….

There’s a lot of low 

Self esteem in blackness….

That black self hate…

I witnessed

Black people don’t see it that way 

They say you can love who you love 

Doesn’t matter what skin color is….

Now 

I look at the situation differently 

I hear other black people 

Like dr. Umar 

Go be with and marry black people

No zaddy 

No snowbunny

He’s got a point….

Besides a white partner

Is goin to stick with their race….

White supremacy will always be 

On their side….

White lovers 

Fetishized black bodies 

They will kill them

Even if your biracial kids 

Will experience racism and confusion….

The only reason why 

Black love does exist 

Is preservin your race

Healing 

It’s deeply needed…

I post black love 

On social media 

Cos a lot of black people 

Need to see it more on a positive light….

Black love is under attack….

Dilute 

Is losin blackness out of 

Your bloodline 

Out of Your genes…

Even though it’s still the blueprint 

You’re makin your generations

To forget black….

Forget ancestors 

Somehow one ancestor 

Will pop somewhere in 

Your great great grandkids….

I will say consequence

Live in your family tree….

All cos 

You 

Hate 

Your 

Black 

Self 

You 

Internalized 

That 

Hate 

From racial propaganda 

From other black people 

Who hate themselves 

As well….

From white folks 

From conditions of trauma….

I used to think 

Black people

Are not being fair 

Cos of my “preference”

I thought it was hate 

Cos I believed love has no skin color 

Til I realized what I have observed 

And read stories 

How interracial relationships 

Killed black spirits….

They’re like manipulation 

Black people has to be controlled 

In the White Households….

Like a slave….

They deal with racist family members 

The fact is that I see some videos of 

Black people actin like animals….

I don’t wanna marry 

White men 

I don’t wanna marry 

Asian men

I’m not dilutin 

My blackness for nobody….

I don’t wanna betray my race 

I don’t wanna hate myself 

I rather be with black people 

Who has self respect and dignity…..

I don’t even wanna crush 

On another man who doesn’t look like 

Me anymore….

I rather stay with my black man….

My black man is not toxic 

My black man is not a deadbeat baby daddy…

My black man is my husband 

My black man loves me…

My black man is strong and masculine 

My black man is my protector, my provider….

He’s not goin for a white woman….

I love my black man 

Black men and black women

Need each other 

Anyway especially dealin 

With the oppression…..

Black people need to put this in 

Mind that white supremacy 

Is attackin the black family….

It’s why they encouraged us to dilute 

Our genetics….some black people 

Encourage it, too….

Don’t do it

Cos 

We need us 

Don’t do it for the white man….

He wants us to disappear 

But at the same time he needs us…..

Don’t dilute 

Please….
