Black Power?

I was heading to Harlem earlier to meet some friends for dinner at Sylvia's Restaurant. I know what you're thinking black man going to an establishment which serves colard greens, macaroni with cheese and fried chicken, how typical. All I have to say is fuck you and yes it was delicious but that's not the point. As I got off the train and made the turn onto Lennox Avenue I see a parade/march of black people dressed in white with green and black flags chanting black power. Now you say so, what's the big deal? Well that's all well in good until I looked in the middle of this crowd and saw the only white guy in the group probably in his 50's chanting too. Only in Harlem and that made me chuckle a bit and I wanted to share that with you.
