Hand In Hand

Dick Gregory, a great black thinker, once said: "Profanity is the strongest expression of a weak mind" Edwin Starr, a great black singer, once crooned: "War, what is it good for? Absolutely nothing!" Freddie Robinson Sr., a great black poet, once wrote: "Profanity and violence go hand in hand" As it is written: cursing is in the mouth of the wicked Again it is written: the wicked seek to take the kingdom of God by violence Truth is told: profanity and violence go hand in hand Such gems of wisdom unearthed in ghetto land
