Black and White

Black and white, day and night, that's all that people see. They make us out to be disgusting, and yet say equal-but separate... such hypocrisy. Just because of the color of our skin, they call us unworthy of even a name, they say that we are all the same. We may not sit at the front of the bus, that is for white man only. We may not eat while the white man does, that would be revolting. How can we be called man, if we are treated as less? How can we take a stand, with such fear in us? But we stand united against the hate, united against this abhorred fate. We walk side by side with white man, following a great man that's talks about a dream. He tells of this fearful dream, where his children may be free. Free to walk along by the white children, to share their seats, and share their bread. He speaks of love overcoming hate, that one day no man shall discriminate. We will all be equal, no longer bound by the chains that hold us down. We will break free from bondage, and rise up- free.
