#2 "My race groaned," she wrote. "It was our people falling. It was another lynching, yet another Black man hanging on a tree. One more woman ambushed and raped. A Black boy whipped and maimed. It was hounds on the trail of a man running through slimy swamps. ... If Joe lost we were back in slavery and beyond help."

That seems very unhealthy attitude. I mean its a fair fight and all, if he loses he loses. Its not a setback for the entire race. Keep up that way of thinking and African Americans will end up less than successful, at the mercy of race mongers and scoundrals.

She needed to get a life.

Too late now . . . .

I can feel your pain, Maya. When I passed Trigonometry, it was an incredible victory for the White race. In yer face, Pythagoras! (OK, so he was a white dude. Just shut up)

#6 When I passed Trigonometry

Of course it was a triumph for the white race. After all, the Egyptians were doing it 3,000 years ago to build the pyramids and canals and stuff.

#7 Angelou's musical style was clear in a passage about basketball great Tim Duncan defeat in Oklahoma City against point guard Russel Westbrook.

"My Texans groaned, she wrote. "It was our playoff record falling, yet another shot blocker making like a tree in the lane. One more offense plan ambushed and tripped by Ibaka. The ball boy wept and moaned. It was their fast breaks running through tepid statues...if The Spurs lost we were back in San Antonio and needing help."
