The White Witch

Though not clearly stated Johnson seems to be talking about relations between a black man and a white woman. The woman is perceived as an evil witch but not as a typical witch that is ugly this witch is very beautiful. It seems that a black man is warning his brothers to stay clear of the white woman and not fall for her tricks. It really speaks of race relations that are still present today. It plays into that illusion that white women are not supposed to be with black men.
