Blackis a color and
African is not American
What do you title me as?
AfricanAmerican or Black.
Well I've never been to Africa.
And blacks iswack.
We went from nigger to colored to black.
And I don't understand howI'm all of that.
So when you title me.
Call me by my name.
Not by myrace.
Because ...
I'm more than just the color on my face.
