It All About Making Human History All Year


See Dark skin just mean more sun block,

it got absolutely nothing to do with 'Races'.

It Just means Your Ancestor,

lived in places closer to the Equator.

the Sun was stronger,

So they needed melanin in their skin to make it darker

and lighter skin just means less protection which is ideal in places.

Where the sun emits less intense ray

it's just Evolution our bodies adapting to keep us Safe.

So I agree Racist should never be together

but human should

For we are one Human race

Each with a Colorless spirit inside

So to define ourselves by races,

is to continue to Live a lie

and No we should not be color blind.

Don't Close Your eyes or deny the past,

Realize we are One people With Many Stories Breathing the same air

and living under the same sun,

So forget the categories,

MAKE IT CLEAR,

it not about Black History Month

but about Making Human History All year
