I Love Who I Am. I Love

I Came From A Place Where There Wasn't A Lot Of Joy.

Bernie Mac Don't Sugarcoat.

I Was Born October 5, 1957, On The South Side Of Chicago, In The Woodlawn Area, A Neighborhood That Hasn't Changed Much In Forty-five Years. Our House Was On 66th And Blackstone, But The City Tore It Down When The Rats Took Over.

I Want To Speak Directly To The Audience, To Say, 'i'm Like You - I'm Frustrated, I'm Not An Expert, I Don't Have A Manual On Parenting, I Make Mistakes, I'm Selfish Too.'

I'm So Black, I Leave Fingerprints On Coal.
