There was a theatre company in the 80's called 7:84 which refferred to
the fact that 7 % of the population owns 84% of the wealth. So when we
refer to the slave trade as if we must bare the guilt still, i do
think that they were the lucky ones as they knew that they were slaves
while we think we are free. Fucking larf that one eh! Oh look at the
nice new tv, better go to work in the morning or else i'll not be able
to keep the payments and then i cant watch the programme about the
poor people or watch the re runs of ROOTS and kunte fecking Kinte.
Killing Joke or what!
so the people who are using the resources are enslaved to those resources

Old pirates, yes, they rob I
Sold I to the merchant ships
Minutes after they took I
>From the bottomless pit
But my hand was made strong
By the hand of the Almighty
We forward in this generation
Triumphantly.
Won't you help to sing
These songs of freedom
'Cause all I ever have
Redemption songs
Redemption songs

Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery
None but ourselves can free our minds
Have no fear for atomic energy
'Cause none of them can stop the time
How long shall they kill our prophets
While we stand aside and look Ooh
Some say it's just a part of it
We've got to fulfil de book

Won't you help to sing
These songs of freedom
'Cause all I ever have
Redemption songs
Redemption songs
