Racism Still Exist
Color is defining who are we but not who we are
We allow the past to judge our present and create our future
Racial profiling and racism never died, it just partially faded
Black on black crime, black on white crime
Why do we only know two colors between black and white and what’s right?
Racial slur being dropped like bars for a rap song
Young children being taught to discriminate and hate friends where they don’t see color only true friendship,
Slavery may have been abolished, but racism still lives on
Racism is not born with a human
We are taught to hate
Color is a way to show who is at the top.
In reality, is there a such thing as color?
We mistake color for a nationality or a race
Color is just the skin you are in
We are all God’s children
Why hate your brothers and sisters?
Why was it created?
People put others down just by the way they look rather than characteristic of that person
Ignorance is bliss and
Has been transferred from generations to generations and will never end
BUT to those who listen,
Have a kind heart and raise your voice
Stand your ground and announce to the world,
That racism can disintegrate with the help of people standing together for one purpose
And I asked you this one simple question
What color defines you today?
Do you entertain racism?
