RE: Aganist Racism
Yeah, used to be just blacks and asians who were victims of racism mostly... but where i live (Birmingham, Uk) its now cool to in the "D Ghetto" and be mixed race/black, more racism against whites here. People will never learn, its almost like this poem i got forwarded...
-x- Stop Racism -x-
A BLACK MAN WALKS INTO A CAFE EARLY ONE MORNING AND NOTICES HE'S THE ONLY ONE THERE
AS HE SAT DOWN HE NOTICED A WHITE MAN SAT BEHIND HIM, THE WHITE MAN SAID "COLOURED PEOPLE ARN'T ALLOWED IN HERE" .
THE BLACK MAN REPLIED...
"WHEN I WAS BORN I WAS BLACK
WHEN I GREW UP I WAS BLACK
WHEN I'M SICK I'M BLACK
WHEN I GO IN THE SUN I'M BLACK
WHEN I'M COLD I'M BLACK
AND WHEN I DIE I'M BLACK.
BUT YOU SIR...
WHEN YOU WERE BORN YOU WERE PINK
WHEN YOUR'E SICK YOUR'E GREEN
WHEN YOU STAY IN THE SUN YOUR'E RED
WHEN YOUR'E COLD YOU TURN BLUE
AND WHEN YOU DIE YOU TURN "PURPLE."
"AND YET YOU HAVE THE NERVE TO CALL ME COLOURED"
THE BLACK MAN TURNED BACK AROUND AND THE WHITE MAN WALKED AWAY.
Youd think in 2005, people would have changed, fortunatly 99% of people i know these days arnt racist..
