die wurzel - neak lyrics

(excerpt):
who taught you to hate the texture of your hair, who taught you to hate the color of your skin, to such extent that you bleach, to get like the white man, who taught you to hate the shape of your nose, and the shape of your lips, who taught you to hate yourself, from the top of your head to the soles of your feet, who taught you to hate your own kind, who taught you to hate the race that you belong to, so much so that you don’t want to be around each other

(excerpt):
when i was growing up, i was taught in american history books, that africa had no history, and neither did i, that i was a savage, about whom the less said the better, who’d be saved by europe, and brought to america, and of course i believed it, i didn’t have much choice, those were the only book there were

(excerpt):
white america must see, that no other ethnic group has been a slave on american soil, that is one thing that other immigrant groups haven’t had to face, the other thing is that the color became a stigma, american society made the negro’s color a stigma

(excerpt):
when we talk about society, where is it? is it out there? no, society is not out there. society is where? it is where? in us…a society can only be carried within the minds and bodies of its members, it does not exist as an entity outside of the minds and bodies of people, so when we talk about a society and social structure, it must represent itself in the behavior of people, and of individuals. society exists outside and separate from people, that is logically impossible, and its a stupidity that’s perpetrated on the populations upon our people, and often leads to serious misunderstandings, both of ourselves and of our situation
