Bigotry is Wack


I have grown up with people of all colors, races, ethnicities, and backgrounds

I have seen the ignorance and hate towards my best friends, neighbors, and peers

No one can choose their color.

I want to change the World now

This is the time to help each other

Not bring each other down.

Martin Luther King Jr. had a dream

That dream has yet to become a reality

Racism is still prevelent in today's society

And it shouldn't be.

The fear of the unknown is what sparks this hate

Educate 

Teach others how to love and appreciate

Then together we will be one.
