Liberty and Justice for ALL


It isn't fair. It shouldn't matter what color your skin or hair. It's a type of insanity, a crime against humanity. With racism and prejudice, we destroy one another. But we should be able to look each other in the eyes and see a brother. I love my country, freedoms, and rights, none of which would be mine without other's fights. But why me? What did I do to deserve these privileges? I see people of all colors fight every day, each in their own unique way. Those are the people who deserve this bliss. So let's come together and end this unkindness.
