Get Them Babies out the Street

GET THEM BABIES OUT THE STREET IS MORE THAN JUST A COLLECTION OF POETRY PIECES, THIS BOOK DEFINES THE LIFE AND TIMES, ALSO THE STRUGGLES OF AFRIKAN AMERICANS. IT IS A CRY FROM EVERY PROJECT BUILDING, A CALL FROM EVERY CONCRETE JUNGLE AND HALLS OF EVERY JUDICIAL SYSTEM. THE STRUGGLE HAS A VOICE, A VOICE OF DETERMINATION A VOICE OF REASONING A VOICE THAT SPEAKS LOUDER INTO THE WORLD SO THAT THE PEOPLE HEAR IT CLEARLY AND I AM THAT VOICE. THERE ARE SELECTIONS IN THIS BOOK THAT WILL BRING ABOUT LAUGHTER AND HOPE AND THEN THERE ARE THOSE ONES THAT WILL BRING ABOUT PAIN AND TEARS. AS THE DAILY LIVES OF AFRIKAN AMERICANS ARE DEFINED THROUGH OUT THIS BOOK ONE CAN'T HELP BUT TO REALIZE A SERIUOSNESS IN OUR CONDITION. EVEN WITH ALL THAT SAID THIS IS NOT A TOOL TO BASH OTHER RACES OR HUMAN LIFES, BUT THIS IS HISTORY, THESE WRITINGS ARE OF PAST AND PRESENT CONDITION, WHERE SOME MAY SEE PIECES LIKE "GHETTO LIFE" A CELEBRATION OF LIFE IN THE GHETTO, OTHERS MAY SEE IT AS A CRY FOR HELP AND CHANGE. THEN YOU HAVE PIECES LIKE "HAPPY WITH MY NAPPINESS" WHICH ENCOURAGES BLACK WOMEN TO BE THEMSELVES AND VALUE THEMSELVES HIGHER THAN WHAT TODAYS STANDARD OF A FEMALE IS. JUST TO NAME A FEW BUT TO NOT GIVE IT ALL AWAY, "GET THEM BABIES OUT THE STREETS" SHOULD BE AMONG THE TOP MOST READ BOOKS OF OUR TIME. I CAN ONLY HOPE THAT THE READERS OF THIS BOOK FEEL AS I FEEL ABOUT THESE WRITINGS AND ENJOY THE JOURNEY INTO PAST FUTURE AND PRESENT TIMES.
