Before you knew you owned it
by Alice Walker
Expect nothing.
Live frugally
On surprise.
become a stranger
To need of pity
Or, if compassion be freely
Given out
Take only enough
Stop short of urge to plead
Then purge away the need.
Wish for nothing larger
Than your own small heart
Or greater than a star;
Tame wild disappointment
With caress unmoved and cold
Make of it a parka
For your soul.
Discover the reason why
So tiny human midget
Exists at all
So scared unwise
But expect nothing.
Live frugally
On surprise.
Power Through Peace, Family!

"Nigger" (nigga) is and will always be a profane, disgusting, derogatory and perverted word/term.
There shouldn't be any beauty/pride in identifying oneself by a perverted word/term created by their race of people oppressor and enemy. The/our Ancstrs don't have any pride for their descendants in that regard either.
Black & Proud/Beautiful, not nigger/nigga & proud/beautiful.
