I Am White
Just because i'm not like them,
does not mean I do not understand.
Just because i'm pale,
does not mean my skin is not the same.
Just because my brothers and sisters may discriminate,
does not mean I will do the same.
Just because I am part of the cruel,
does not mean I am cruel myself.
Just because I haven't had it rough,
been beaten down,
been told I am superior,
does not mean I am.
Just because I am a different as well,
does not mean I want to face any discrimination.
Just because I am taught through the past ways of my brothers and sisters,
does that mean I am to act like them?
Just because I am white,
does it mean I have to feel hatred?
