Racial Harrassment
The Pre-Civil Rights days are making a comeback,
where "other" ethnicities are under attack,
Asian, Indians, Jews, Hispanics and Blacks,
The daggers are being thrown at backs,
Minorities have come a long way from the
days of degradation and ostracism,
Why would anyone want to revist that era again?
Keeping minorities at bay won't restore the economy,
neither will violence, hate crimes and hostility,
We are all equals in the eyes of God,
having earthly experiences that are good
and bad,
We travel the same stormy seas,
Racial Harrassment only brings contempt
and dis-ease,
In unity peace will be found and maybe resolutions that
will astound.
