Interracial Love

Excerpt from Eldridge Cleaver’s Soul on Ice, 1965

“There are white men who will pay you to fuck their wives. They approach you and say, ‘How would you like to a fuck a white woman? ‘What is this? you ask. ‘On the up-and-up,’ he assures you. ‘It’s all right she’s my wife. She needs black rod, is all. She has to have it. It’s like a medicine or drug to her. She has to have it. I’ll pay you. It’s all on the level, no trick involved. Interested? You go with him and he drives you to their home. There is a certain type who will leave you and his wife alone and tell you to pile her real good. After it is all over, he will pay you and drive you wherever you want to go. Then there are some who like to peep at you through a keyhole and watch you have his woman…or lie under the bed and listen to the creaking of the bed as you work out. There is another type who likes to masturbate while he stands beside the bed and watches you pile her. There is the type who likes to eat his woman up after you get through piling her. And there is the type who only wants you to pile her for a little while, just long enough to thaw her out and kick her motor over and arouse her to heat, then he wants you to jump off real quick and he will jump onto her and together they can make it from there by themselves.”
