Prejudice
The source of prejudice is the unknown.
It's the ignorance, and unwillingness to learn.
It is human nature to fear and despise
what we do not know.
It scares us, and that's alright.
But from that fear
judgment is born
and what we don't know
we seek to destroy and shut down. To silence.
Begone! be anything that is unfamiliar
aliens and the likewise.
let them cease to exist.
But.
Maybe if the bigots and people with prejudice filling their hearts would just
take a look.
They could see the beauty in certain things that they fear.
And come to love as one.
