Schools don't know,
They teach what is taught,
But what MUST be taught is taught with fraught.
No one recalls the days of new,
When the schools are segregated,
And WE are still frustrated.
They talk about race,
In the Halls where the walls are as hardened as bathroom stalls,
BUT we don't talk about the races,
In the classroom those are empty spaces to avoid,
When asked about it the instructors become annoyed.
WE must take ACTION against the lack of reACTION,
INFORM those who are uninformed,
SPEAK for those who can no more,
And MOVE.
