Racist Hues
Racism according to dictionary means “The prejudice that members of one race are intrinsically superior to members of other races”. I read some articles related to racism which is very much prevalent in South Africa and Australia.
This poem was nominated poem of 2005 for the bestpoem, written by an African kid.........amazing thought!!!
When I born, I Black,
When I grow up, I Black,
When I go in Sun, I Black,
When I scared, I Black,
When I sick, I Black,
And when I die, I still black..
And you White fella,
When you born, you Pink,
When you grow up, you are white,
When you go in Sun, you Red,
When you cold, you Blue,
When you scared, you Yellow,
When you sick, you Green,
And when you die, you Gray..
And you calling me Colored??
Very interesting indeed... clearly evinces the agony against Racism.
