Love is beautiful thang

"WE is a beautiful thang, you and me is a beautiful thang". Kindred sang those lyrics and they are so true. Black Love is Black Power, Black Love is Black Wealth. It's such a wondrous thing to see black couples in love. Holding hands, showing affection towards each other. In a day and age where the black woman is the most disrespected woman in the world, its great to see her shown respect from a King. The mothers of the Earth have been pushed to the bottom of the totem pole and it's a shame that black men don't do more to show black women love. Tupac said it best "we came from a woman, got our name from a woman...so why do we hate our women?" The dialogue has been lacking in our communities. Too many of our young men are focusing on the wrong things, we aren't teaching them how to be lovers and fighters. It seems most young men don't understand how to be sensitive to a woman's needs, yet at the same time be masculine enough to protect her. We have to teach our young boys respect and regardless of what the world tells them, they will know how to respect the Black Queen. There are still great brothers out here, and at the same time great sisters who aren't what the stereotype displays them as. We all have issues black, white, Asian, etc. Yet our race is the only one that blatantly disrespects our women. We need more Black Love, which will lead to more Black Power, and more Black Wealth...because Love is a beautiful thang..."you and me is a beautiful thang".
