Do Not Hate

What goes through your head
When racist things are said?
What is it that you’ve read?
It’s sad
Education bad 
Racism has always been with us
People think it’s ok to cuss.

Do your research 
What has always been around you 
Learn 
And In turn 
You may become concerned.

Are you slightest bit curious?
This is serious!

Racism will never be right
It’s time to fight
Will things ever change?
Its not clear in sight
But maybe they might 
When dumb people
See the light.

Racism has been around for years
To your eyes it will bring tears
People living in constant fear.

Maybe a day will come 
When uneducated people
Become a little less dumb
Respectful
And not act like scum.

But for now we exist 
In an awful place 
I rest my case 
Don’t hate this race.

It is true the more we get to know others the more likely we are to wisely stop judging people on superficial physical attributes. Nice job.
