Ignorant Slurs

All of the sudden this lump in my throat begins to swell, I want to scream cry and yell. As I hear your ignorant slurs toward people of color. What makes you so perfect to speak down on an entire race? Why does it matter the color of skin on my ancestors face? So many people have fought for equality, To rid the minds that one specific nationality has more purity. We are one big melting pot. Purity in the heart is the only thing that should be sought. It saddens me to feel the prejudice in your heart. I wish I could have seen your hatred from the start.
