What Is the Crime of Africa

What is the crime of Africa 
How old are you 
How long have you lived 
On planet earth 
What do you know about 
Africa 
What is your view 
About the so called 
Black race 
Are you still so new to discover
The continent called Africa
Or 
Are you familiar
To it popular propaganda
Or 
To it popular poverty stories


What is the crime of Africa
We gave the world
All we have 
The humans
The resources
The songs of freedom
The love 
The care 
The talent 
The civilization
The hope for life 
Despite all we give 
We are still killed 
Like we are never meant 
To exist 
Despite all we worth
Suppression still knocks 
On our doors
The world we feed
The world we cared for 
Never care about our 
Existence
All they need is 
All we got 
Not we as humans 
It obvious
If not please tell Me
What is the crime of Africa
