Great for Whom

America the great - 

where litter rots in the streets

where people live in poverty

where the news is horrifying

where shootings are rampant

where children are dying

...great for whom?

 

America the free -

unless you're black

unless you're queer

unless you're poor

unless you're Jewish

unless you're Muslim

...free for whom?
