Full article:

Chuck D (Public Enemy) : Say It Loud – I'm Black and I'm Proud was a record that really convinced me to say I was black instead of a negro. Back then black folks were called negroes, but James said you can say it loud: that being black is a great thing instead of something you have to apologise for.
