Learn

Who are these people who hate me
For the color of my skin
Or the way I think
Even some for how much money I make

 

They are obedient servants of
"God"
"Buddha"
"Jehovah"
"Allah"
This I do not think

 

The devil
white man
black man
yellow man
red man
outter space man
made me do it
Yes this I have heard
Let's take responsibility for our own actions
Please don't be so absurd

 

Read the words of the
prophets
historians
victims
surviviors

 

Learn something about the
past
present
future
Before we again raise our hand
To those who we do not understand

 

Remember we are all human
man
woman
child
So are we not all of one race

Stop letting our petty differences
Lead to what we create

This comes through loud and clear. Steps are made everyday, but the fact that it is still as rampant as it is means that the ideas and perceptions that make it so are pretty deep seeded in our collective psyche. We just have to keep chipping away with sentiment like this, and mind our own thoughts and actions to the best of our ability. Nice work...Loved it.
