Currently untitled..but here goes:

Most of us
Have learned to
Appreciate other cultures
And not disrespect them
But We have not learned
To appreciate each other
In the sense that
There is racism within each race
"You're white washed;
You're too dark;
You're too light."
We are who we are
The color of our skin
Our national origin
Is who we are
How We talk,
How We dress,
How We walk,
Does not change who we are

Just because I run
With a crew that's different
Than yours
Does not mean that I
Have forsaken who I am
What is it to be Asian?
What is it to be White?
What is it to be Black?
You are who you are

So tell me how you can act
White
How can you act
Black
How can you act
Asian

The members of those races define this
How to act
White
How to act
Black
How to act
Asian

There should not be a definition
There should be no way to act
White
To act
Black
To act
Asian

This is something you are
You are
White
You are
Black
You are
Asian

I
Am
White

I
Am
Black

I
Am
Asian


I don't know about this one.. huh.gif
