Racism


We define people by their skin color,

Black and

White,

Yet we are all different shades of brown.

 

Does it make us different beings?

Does it change the purity of ones heart?

Does it effect the human itself?

Does it make people who they are?

 

What one shade is the difference between,

Black and 

White?

Look down, Are you actually 

Black or,

White?

For everyone, the answer is no.
