Racism

In a world where racism abounds

it's difficult to ignore

when you are singled out

because you are born elsewhere

In the opinion of the majority,

you are inferior

But you are not

"Go home!" They shout

On the other hand, your race

is remarkable

It's meaningful to you and to your descendants

Many disapprove based on skin color

However, you are worthwhile and belong in this world

Believe in yourself

Set goals and work toward them

Become a memorable individual

Show racists you belong

Although, some people won't change their beliefs,

work to end this,

Gather support to fight the spread of racism

Make a difference

it doesn't mean that

you don't make a difference

you do

We can help stop it if we try

Make the right decisions

We can be united despite different colors

Each individual is unique with something to offer

It's what inside that counts
