Racial Divided

I'll say a few words none to be kind. America is still color blind. You could be yellow, red, white, brown, or black. Hate towards any of these colors is racism and that’s a proven fact. Racism comes in many different shapes and forms. I have had my fair share since I’ve been born. God blessed us by putting us here, giving us all different shades of color. We’re not meant to have the same color skin, but we all can respect one another. They judge you by where you come from and the color of your skin; for much equality and respect seems impossible to win. Because of race why do innocent people die? My spirit and soul begins to cry. As I advocate the human rights for all man. Our nation looks so liberal and claims there is equality for all humans. We need to join together as one, Until our earths work is done. People are just human beings regardless of their ethnic pride. So people should try to constantly look spiritually inside. Let us all hope that the dark clouds of racial prejudice will soon pass away, and that in some not too distant tomorrow the radiant stars of love and brotherhood will shine over our great nation with all their scintillating beauty. Martin Luther King Jr.
