Racism

by Christina Gomes   Feb 4, 2005


Black or white we’re still the same
Hating each other for color is such a stupid game
Ethnicities and backgrounds don’t define who we are
A persons’ race being the most important is from the truth very far
Look at me I’m different from you
If you’re going to hate me, what can I do?
Color is just color, nothing more
Don’t treat other’s differently if color is all its for
I’m from a different country, does that mean of a person I am less?
The world is so hostile; people are becoming such a mess
We don’t all look alike but we are still one
I guess myself and many others have lost, since racism has won

~Please rate and comment, it would mean a lot, because really i can't stand racism, but there's just so much of it nowadays....

    This is really good. Racism bothers me a lot to. I think it is like something that evryone knows is there but they are to unwiling to talk about it.

    We are just the same people only catagorized as to were we came from. It's stupid.
