Autum defended her poem by explaining to the WestchesterJournal News that white people are "devils and they should be gone. We should be away from them and still be in Africa."
Stating that 'white people are devils' is an inappropiate way of behaving imo. The fact her father hasnt pulled her up on this statement saids it all to me. One can be proud of their history and recite it as much as they want, without having to break their own moral standards of humility and diplomacy.
Thats it really.
Im assuming the fathers a hater, and could be wrong however its no secret some NOI memebers openly call white people 'blonde haired devils' which in my book makes you a hater before you even begin to entertain the debate about the accuracy of the statement. Personally I dont subscribe to this 'way of life' and believe we should be teaching our children how to use certain emotions more effectively than this example. Thats not to take away from her poetry which i dont have the slightest problem with.
