Along with many other things we have to thank them for, Black people are rightly proud of The Blues, Muhammad Ali, Jimi Hendrix and a black President.

However, none of these things would have been possible without something that we gave to them.

Can you name it?

I think it's the Krankies! It's well known that Ian was a prolific blues guitarist, he palyed a Gibson ES335, but persuaded Hendrix to use a Telecaster and introduced him to lighter fuel.
Jannette was world heavywieght championship boxer, she met Ali, whilst he was waiting for her autograph outside Madison square gardens one night after a title fight...the rest is history.
It's a well known secret, that Jannette, had an affair with a Kenyon goatherder, they had a child, they called the child 'Barry' he was adopted and when on to study law and politics........

Randyandy wins a mess of chitterlings.

They were employed after a fashion but their human rights were denied from the point at which they were enslaved. There's a lot more to human dignity than having a job.

I still prefer the Krankies theory.
