Re: Lyrics Explanation Thread

segregation is the splitting of the two races in schools/restaurants/water fountains/everything. Before Martin Luther King Jr., the "Million Man March", Brown v. The Board of Education, there were black water fountains, bathrooms, schools, and white water fountains, bathrooms, schools, etc etc. Blacks had to sit in the back of the bus, while the whites were HEAVILY favored in all phases of life. You may know the name Rosa Parks, who was the first black woman to basically stand her ground, and not get out of her seat on the bus for a white person. All this was known as "segregation", basically the unequal separation of the two major races, after all this, schools were black/white students in the same classroom, with the same teacher, the restaurants allowed all colors/races into the doors. So wayne is basically saying, look, "black & white diamonds" all on my body, all intermingled with one another, and thats why he says, "FUCK segregation". Cuz of course he's showing that the black and white diamonds he's got on aren't separated, or he doesnt just wear white diamonds/black diamonds by themselves...

Considering the dude was asking about a BASIC line like THAT, i think its pretty necessary. especially if he isnt from the U.S. and doesnt know the history behind it. you didnt have to read it, and you didnt have to comment back. geez, my apologies for trying to help someone who DOESNT understand United States racial history, help understand that line.

I agree 100% that it SHOULDN'T be necessary, but if a person is asking about "segregation", he isnt gonna understand "discrimination" either. Especially if he doesnt speak english as a first language and doesnt study American history in school/university/whatever.

Just dont think what you said, and what "callmetunechi" said would make him understand. again, sorry. smh.
