My grand peoples are from the land of the first free. The land where enslaved Africans revolted against their oppressors "The French" and kicked Napolean and his army's ass back the fuck to France. The first free Black republic in the "the western hemisphere" HAITI kid.
Me and my old folks were born there but immigrated to Brooklyn young. I was born in Brooklyn, New York (Bushwick, Flatbush, Brownsville Eastern Parkway stand up!).
