"Shall we rise to the capacities of our true identity, or keep erecting false enemies, gods and monuments?"
PM

"I have a dream that people will one day live in a nation where they'll not be judged by color of the skin, but by content of character."
MLK, Jr

lyrics

Mississippi White
Ain’t no California shade
And stunted, skin tone pride
You know ain’t True Northern Grade

You’ve got to outwork the devil to lead so blind
Black or white, they come and read you the sign
Diggin’ down deep for the bleeding kind
Blinded by color, sleight of hand for the eyes —
Colorblinded

Violence cries more muscle than brains
But it was the Sons & Daughters of Ghandi
That parted the waves

While the works of Honest Men
Recording those deeds
Let flood into hearts, in all parts of the world
The torch of God upon Cain’s walking dreams

You’ve got to work like the devil to lead so blind
Black or white, come and read you the sign
Diggin’ down deep, for the bleeding kind
Blinded by color, sleight of hand for the eyes —
Colorblinded

Mad with the fever, fever-sport of hate
Delirious and half-stoned with opiate rage
The rallying mob on its own
You can bet it ain’t nothin’ that Heaven could make

You’ve got to outwork the devil to run so blind
Black or white, they come and show you the sign
Rivers run deep for the bleeding kind...

You’ve got to work like the devil to lead so blind
Black or white, well they can show you the sign
Buried down deep for the bleeding kind
Blinded by color, sleight of hand for the eyes —

Colorblinded
