Dear America


Dear America,

 

Why do you mistreat 

the minorities?

What did the minorities 

ever do to you? 

The minorities 

have only helped to build you

You are what you are now

because of the minorities

Although they make up part of

the population, 

you make them seem foreign

as if they weren’t part of you

Why is that?

 

Sincerely, 

Christopher Pedraza
