Happy Black History Month


We're all just human, with different shades of skin,
But that doesn't mean our worth is thin.
 
Racism is a poison, a disease in our heart,
Tearing us apart, keeping us apart.
 
But it's time to stand up, to put an end to hate,
To embrace our differences, to break down this gate.
 
We all deserve love, respect, and equality,
No matter where we're from, no matter our ethnicity.
 
So let's raise our voices, let's fight for what's right,
For a world without racism, a world that's bright.
 
Together we can make this world a better place,
Where everyone's accepted, with a smiling face.
