i learned from james brown, "say it loud; i'm black, and i'm proud." i'm eight years old. had a profound effect on me. because the year before, let's say the newlywed game would be on and me and my brothers and sisters-- me and my brother and my sister would be all, "ooh, ooh, ooh, they got a colored couple on! let's vote for the coloreds!" we was "colored" a year before! and three years before that, we was "negroes." and so i'm like, "okay, say it loud; i'm black and i'm proud.
