my GENERATION POEM by jordan mcswain

Posted By: Jordan McSwain on April 24, 2006 The last of the crack era babies alot of things changed since the 80s we are looked down upon, its even worst for the black ladies It's hard to go to schoool when your friends on the block pushing mercedes but maybe,if we stay strong and move on, other generations won't think were crazy Im the voice of the "lost generation" They think we're black, dumb, and don't care for education So they cut back on financial aid To make our black college sistas strip to get tuition paid It's a struggle out here no matter what race you are But it feels as though blacks have it so hard In the hood we killing ourselves, its our own version of civil war terror We are addicted to fast money, no wonder we're from the crack era My people If you enjoyed this article, Join HBCU CONNECT today for similar content and opportunities via email! |
