This is well written, dear Silvia:)
Good job on the format too..

Racism is an evil thing, yes...but there are so many kinds of discrimination and no way to end it, unless we change our way of thinking completely.
People are biased for so many reasons, skin color is a biggy and I know all about slavery and the KKK and the apartheid. We are such fools:/

Raise your voices now, speak out,
men are equal, we must shout.

^^^
We are all different, but all equal, yes...and it should go without saying, really......

Excellent work:)

*hugs*

5/5 Ingrid

Is that not the truth. Youve said everything, yes Racism is alive and well in this country and everywhere else. Well done :)

I really liked this write... AND this form Sylvia :) I'm making it a favourite! It's a very well said truth... a Wonderful poem, with a strong message! Excellent.

"words spoken dripping with hate"... how true.. great words used!

So sad, and wonderfuly written. Sometimes when we're caught up in our own little worlds we forget how bad it is out in the rest of the world.

Racism is something I don't hear much of, then when I do, I'm so shocked.

It really seems like one problem that should have been resolved a long time ago, and people should just get over. I really wish it were that easy!

Great write, 5/5!

Yes racism is alive & no one knows when it
will end & be accepted by all! Well done with
the form..it had a good flow :)

All should be judged on the content of their character. Racists just display their own ignorance. A sad truth in this piece. Nice job.

Amen Sylvia! Well said :-)

This poem of yours reminds us of the brutal reality that still lingers, Sylvia. Rarely do people touch upon this subject nowadays, though they think racism has slightly disappeared, it is existent more than ever. You are brave to have touched upon this subject in a light,smooth and straightforward manner. Peace, W.

Another beauty from you :)
beautifully expressed... its still hard to believe the narrow mindness of people ...

well penned...

Its a beautiful expresion and written with the power of your words, well done-nes

Boring...well structured but dull...verbose but lacks imagery. tells but doesn't show. preachy but without a personal touch. grammatically incorrect. cliched. (didn't vote. don't believe in it.)

Wow, i think this person bhaskaryya, is angry with his ownself and i am sure he had not seen the world or ignore what's taking place. Anyway everyone is entitled to his/her own ideas but i have to defend this one.

Anyway, sylvia this is so true. I have seen and heard other human being treated so unkind. Some people find things that is different strange. Very well done on a sensitive subject 5/5, kel.
