Racial Profiling


Why do people hate the other race? 

I see nothing wrong with the color of a person's face. 

Being racial profiled for just walking or jogging.

Why can’t it just end?

Oh, but it’s a problem if we try and defend.

Ahmaud Arbery’s murder, shot dead.

What was their reason?

Poor man couldn’t even see a new season.

What..? ‘Cause he’s black he was up to no good?

Looked like he was from the hood? 

Can’t believe they were just roaming free.

Then get punished MONTHS later.. 

Although it's unfair,the public still came together. 

There is something wrong with the world, 

and it needs to be cured.
