Nigger is a persistent and rebellious word in the history and vocabulary of theUnited States of America, and plays a significant role in centuries of terrorist actsagainst African Americans. Yet, within the Black community, a curious familialbond with the word has existed through generations of slavery until today. NiggaPlease!!! Remember Who You Were Before You Were Told Who You Should Be,presents a theory grounded in ancient and present day Ethiopian nobility whichmay explain why this is so, and why the ruling class found it necessary to corruptits original sovereignty.Nigga Please juxtaposes this theory against the blasphemous language andbehaviors of Rap, Gangsta Rap and aspects of Hip Hop culture intersectingwith multi-ethnic versions of nigga being exploited and abused worldwide to thedetriment of African American youth, young adults, and our communities.vRemember Who You Were offers a basic metaphysical model for re-imagingAmerica’s most enduring dilemma and a prescription for healing fromgenerational traumas as we move towards restoring our people to our originalgreatness. The Honorable Marcus Garvey believed that 'if we as a peopleknew the greatness from which we came, we would be less likely to disrespectourselves.' Black survival and the rich musical legacy African Americans havecontributed to the world gives us cause to celebrate our humanity and creativity.Gangsta lyrics give us nothing to be proud of.Patricia Meade Leonard is an educator andworld traveler with special interest in the artsand spiritual traditions practiced in West Africanand African Diaspora societies.
