Black Childhood: "Make'um Take'um" | African American Boys Wall Art

"Make Um Take Um"
Sullivan Art Studio™ Original Fine Art

Everybody's playing. But everybody's playing for themselves. No teammates, no favors, no waiting your turn. You want it — you go get it. You want to win — you hustle. That's the name. That's always been the game.

Make Um Take Um. The one where the rules are simple and the competition is everybody standing next to you. Where you learn early that nobody is going to hand you anything. Where the kids who want it most find out exactly what they're made of — on the court, on the block, in the game and in life.

This is Black childhood teaching Black children everything they need to know. Before the world ever gets a chance to test them — the game already did.
