noo you said field nigger as shown above. i believe "house nigger" was being refered to Colin Powell. in my opinion both are rude and uncalled for. what difference is it if it was house or field?

NGONGE   

Talking of great speeches (not plagiarised ones by the way, naughty naughty boys). Here is Mark Antony’s from William Shakespeare's Julius Caesar, but first let me give you a quick introduction to this speech!

 

Brutus and the conspirators had killed Caesar ( Et tu, Brute!). Brutus had given a great speech and managed to convince the mob that Caesar deserved to die because he was too ambitious and thought himself to be bigger than Rome! Antony, persuaded Brutus to let him talk to the crowd and conned him into believing he was on the side of the murderers. Antony gave the following speech (I’m sure you’ll recognise the first three words if not the whole speech):

 

 

 

 

Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears;

I come to bury Caesar, not to praise him.

The evil that men do lives after them;

The good is oft interred with their bones;

So let it be with Caesar. The noble Brutus

Hath told you Caesar was ambitious:

If it were so, it was a grievous fault,

And grievously hath Caesar answer'd it.

Here, under leave of Brutus and the rest--

For Brutus is an honourable man;

So are they all, all honourable men--

Come I to speak in Caesar's funeral.

He was my friend, faithful and just to me:

But Brutus says he was ambitious;

And Brutus is an honourable man.

He hath brought many captives home to Rome

Whose ransoms did the general coffers fill:

Did this in Caesar seem ambitious?

When that the poor have cried, Caesar hath wept:

Ambition should be made of sterner stuff:

Yet Brutus says he was ambitious;

And Brutus is an honourable man.

You all did see that on the Lupercal

I thrice presented him a kingly crown,

Which he did thrice refuse: was this ambition?

Yet Brutus says he was ambitious;

And, sure, he is an honourable man.

I speak not to disprove what Brutus spoke,

But here I am to speak what I do know.

You all did love him once, not without cause:

What cause withholds you then, to mourn for him?

O judgment! thou art fled to brutish beasts,

And men have lost their reason. Bear with me;

My heart is in the coffin there with Caesar,

And I must pause till it come back to me.

 

 

The whole play can be found here smile.gif

N.O.R.F   

what difference is it if it was house or field?

A field negro was a tough coockie who didnt take cr*p from his master and was therefore less favoured. The house negro was more favoured by the master and hence got the breaks/extras the master thought he deserved. Like sending his kids to school, looking after them when they were sick etc etc. Many house neros were also born in America, but of a lighter colour due to their moms being raped by the master. Seeing his own kids the master would keep them in the house and look after them.

 

etc etc etc
