“40 acres, 40 stories” is Sikivu’s forthcoming song on the legacy of the 1919 Red Summer and white supremacist female complicity in racial capitalism and the theft of Black generational wealth from Wilmington, NC and Elaine Arkansas to South L.A.
“Wolf cryin’ white girls storm the town square
Gave the mob word to pillage and desecrate
Cracker lynchers burnt Black Wall Street built their kin baronial estates
Gave the keys to the legacy ingrates.”
