I mean shit! I remembah back in thah day! I worked for Kroger as an Assistant Manager and shit in thah Plainfield Kroger located on 267! There was this Head Stock employee who asked me to come tah ah party he was throwin for his Wife and he lived near Martinsville, Indiana! Big cornfed muh fuckah wearin glasses and had fire engined hair with thah same colored beard tah boot! Anyway... Now Chris bragged all thah time about his artillery. Even bragged about ownin ovah ah hundred grenades and shit! I wanted tah witnUSs his broke ass US armory! But... my YOUng Black ass told 'im,
'Naw Chris! I'm cool! I'm the wrong colah tah be in or even around Martinsville, Indiana! Just sayin.'
"Meredith. Everyone knows me around my neighborhood. You'll be safe."
'Okay. But when I leave. Driving back home tah Indianapolis. Outside of your neighborhood. Is a Black man safe?'
"Damn! I never thought of that!"
(Peace! More to come...)
