Back during slavery, when Black people like me talked to the slaves,
they didn't kill 'em, they sent some old house Negro along behind him to undo what he said.
You have to read the history of slavery to understand this.
There were two kinds of Negroes. There was that old house Negro and the field Negro

There were two kinds of Negroes. There was that old house Negro and the field Negro
And the house Negro always looked out for his master. When the field Negroes got too much out of line, he held them back in check. He put 'em back on the plantation. The house Negro could afford to do that because he lived better than the field Negro. He ate better, he dressed better, and he lived in a better house. He lived right up next to his master - in the attic or the basement. He ate the same food his master ate and wore his same clothes. And he could talk just like his master - good diction. And he loved his master more than his master loved himself. That's why he didn't want his master hurt. If the master got sick, he'd say, "What's the matter, boss, we sick?" When the master's house caught afire, he'd try and put the fire out. He didn't want his master's house burned. He never wanted his master's property threatened. And he was more defensive of it than the master was
That was the house Negro. But then you had some field Negroes, who lived in huts, had nothing to lose. They wore the worst kind of clothes. They ate the worst food. And they caught hell. They felt the sting of the lash. They hated their master. Oh yes, they did. If the master got sick, they'd pray that the master died. If the master's house caught afire, they'd pray for a strong wind to come along. This was the difference between the two
And today you still have house Negroes and field Negroes. I'm a field Negro
在奴隶制期间，当像我这样的黑人谈到奴隶时，
他们没有杀死他们，他们沿着他送一些老房子黑人，以撤消他所说的。
你必须阅读奴隶制的历史来理解这一点。
有两种黑人。有那个老房子内格罗和菲涅格罗
房子内格罗总是寻找他的主人。当田间黑人过多的线路时，他把它们拿回来检查。他把他们放回了种植园。房子内格罗能够这样做，因为他比现场黑人更好。他吃得更好，穿着更好，他住在一个更好的房子里。他在阁楼或地下室生活在他的主人旁边。他吃了同样的食物，他的大师吃了，穿着同样的衣服。他可以像他的主人一样说话。他比他的大师喜欢自己更爱他的大师。这就是为什么他不想要他的主人受伤。如果大师生病了，他说，“这是什么事，老板，我们生病了吗？”当主人的房子抓到了，他试着把火了。他不希望他的主人烧毁。他从不希望他的师父的财产受到威胁。而且他比师父更加防守
那是房子黑人。但后来你有一些生活在小屋的野外黑人，没有什么可失去的。他们穿着最糟糕的衣服。他们吃了最糟糕的食物。他们抓住了地狱。他们感受到了睫毛的刺痛。他们讨厌他们的主人。哦，是的，他们做到了。如果大师生病了，他们会祈祷主人死了。如果主人的房子抓到了，他们就会祈祷强风。这是两者之间的区别
今天你仍然有房子黑人和野外黑人。我是一个野外黑人
