Colorblind

Black yellow red brown and white I’m not racist I am color blind born without sight Its something you can learn and keep within How can you judge a person by the color of they’re skin You don’t have to like everyone but you should show respect Why are you violent against other maybe you suffered some neglect Shouting words of anger and burning of cross These hurt others but it’s your great humanitarian loss Get to know the person and in them discover Never ever judge a book by its cover If you want to make it through heavens gate Be colorblind and don’t give into evil and hate Written by Kevin Clark for Olajide Adelana's contest

It sure is wonderful when color is unimportant, just the spirit shines through. We all have a contribution and you said it beautifully!
