Yes, I am a Negro

Yes, I am a Negro

I am a negro
I say it with pride
I cannot my colour hide
its radiant blackness does glow.
I am tropically designed,
and from taunts I am resigned.
I love my natural label,
it rings my pride like a bell.
My frame is black and lovely,
I am feminine and curvy.
My rare Baartman’s curves are awesome,
despite my colour being ‘loathsome.’
My labour in the scorching field
was worth a trans-Atlantic risk.
I enriched the west with my yield.
My hard labour did slip my disc.
I am Africa’s black gold,
and on this heritage I hold.
I am black and proudly so,
that is who I am, a negro!!

Black and Proud
