Notes About The Poem

 

    THE OPPRESSOR SYNDROME EXODUS: A MLOKU TRIO

 

       Today, we hued ones, continue to suffer an Oppressor Syndrome;

       Once known as Black-On-Black Crime, is still around in our community.

       We must now realize its healing must come from us, and us alone:-

 

       It’s indeed a mental disorder to engage in self-oppression;

       And it’s one hell of a thing, when the oppressed does the oppressor’s job.

       It’s high time we become aware of this unhealthy situation:-

 

       In today’s political oppression, self-healing must now be had.

       With renewed faith and belief in self, let us reflect our black power;

       With divine wisdom and guidance, let us exodus self-oppression:-
