Discrimination towards immigrants


Many people have been racist,
 
Even though, they talk about injustice.
 
They don’t care to critic others,
 
Even though, God created us as brothers.
 
 
They feel superior,
 
Making others inferior. 
 
We’re all equal, 
 
The only difference is that we are illegal. 
 
 
People are saying cruel things,
 
Believing they are higher as Kings. 
 
Why do they think they are better?
 
Only because they have an expensive sweater. 
 
 
People say we are different, 
 
Just because we as immigrants want to pay less rent. 
 
In the past, Black and White people were segregated,
 
It doesn’t exist anymore, but today we have different races.
 
 
You’re an immigrant,
 
And many people being discriminant. 
 
We work hard everyday,
 
So one day we can happily say hooray!    
 
 
We are big,
 
But with people’s comments we get sick. 
 
Let’s get rid of discrimination,
 
So, we can live happy as a nation.
