What If She Could See Us Now?


If She could see the black on black violence How would She feel? If She could see the battle between #TeamLightSkin and #TeamDarkSkin How would She react? If She could see how quick we are to throw out the race card for all problems How would She think? If our Mother Land could see the way we act What would She do? Would She be proud of her children Proud to see how they use the rights they've fought for? Fighting on World Star, insulting their race. Racing towards proving the ignorant stereotypes correct. Correct or incorrect examples we teach our youth. The same youth running the streets without education. What if She Could See Us Now?
