I need you guys help understanding these poets. Here are the youtube video names: Definition Urban Juke Joint 7/09 and Elysee Thomas Urban juke Joint 7/09. The first poet said “No wonder european kings reached for african branches and hung them from trees just to sweetin the american air scent-fewer indians talk to the wind” and the second poet said “Genocide speak louder than storms especially if your trying to hide africa under you bones.” I tried to undstand them, but im jus lost lol! If you guys have time then please watch these vids and let me know what you think its mean! Thanks and God bless!
well im not exactly sure about the first one, but the second one is basically saying that you can not hide fromm your african heritage.
