Do You Care
I turn on the news, it isn't there
Internet top stories, college football, Britney Spears, it isn't there
400,000 dead do you not care?
I care
three eight year old girls raped, chained together and burned alive
I care
After the Holocust we promise ourselves and future generations never again
But there's Rhonda, Uganda, Tibet and Sudan
The world it seems just does not care
What if it was me?
What if i lived in Darfur?
Geogaphy is my savior
That i was born in the USA give me a sense of pride
It does not give me a sense of superiority
What if I, A group of I
Attractive, young, white female lived in Darfur
Would you continue on with your life
Would you pretend there was no genocide
You can tell yourself the same thing the politicians tell us
That it is not a race issue
But lets be honest, its poor black African being murdered and do we care?
I care
You should care
Please care
Please learn about Darfur
