You forgot what it was like to remember
what your parents said. what
it was like
to grow up in the 40s and 50s;
some of you
you act as if we’ve always had the right to swim in the same pools
to drink out the same fountains
to love their men and their women.
to shit in their toilets
get together folks:
our parents were only qualified to clean those toilets
black yourselves up
or it will be done for you.
on a lower scale.
retro-
actively.

Prose and image, both #Boss. I wonder how our ancestors would feel seeing their descendants all standing proud as college graduates.
I imagine it would be a warm and beautiful feeling.
