Poem

Ash, the powder on their faces 
Chains, the ornaments around their necks
Rocks, the pillows they rested their heads 

Even in the cold
Their sweat never dried up 
Down their bodies blood flowed
When sweat ran out 

Scars became their tattoos 
Black traditions became taboos
Owned as pets, deprived of food

Bought our dignity 
Starved of opportunity 
And begging for immunity
The black community 

Black is the colour of the night
Of the sky devoid of light
Of shadows lurking in the dark
Of a heart that bears love's mark

Black is the race that overcame
Years of slavery, hate, and shame
With strength and grace they rose above
And showed the world their boundless love

They paved the way for civil rights
Fought for freedoms, day and night
Made a difference, big and small
And finally answered racism's call

Their skin, so rich and bold and strong
Is a beacon for where they belong
In a world where prejudice is strife
They stand as champions in life

So let's celebrate the black race
Their courage, love, and endless grace
Let's embrace their rich history
And honour their legacy in eternity
