Telling The Truth

Written By: D. Collins 9/29/25 The only people in America, that's ever acknowledged me. Was Abraham Lincoln and the and the brothers Kennedy. They went outside the lines which cost them their lives. We just silence anyone who believes in equal rights. Now here we are in the year twenty-twenty-five. And, that hatred for others is very much alive. Unless it is directed towards the state of Isreal. You're convicted and facing a long stint in jail. There ain't nothing wrong with telling the truth. That ten-times hatred that was thrown at you. This ain't no gossip, just ask any black man. How the police departments became the Klan.
