As we read our chapters in history,

about Hitler, the Jews in Germany,

and how they were killed.

Even now our eyes get filled,

with tears and our hearts with sympathy.

'How'd they kill innocent children so brutally?'

We ask this question and yet ignore,

the cries of our brothers and sisters next door,

who we can help right now,

yet they have no one with them somehow.

Rights taken away,

they don't even have a say.

In camps, secluded,

while the media blinds us.

China commits GENOCIDE!

It tortures people and yes many have died.

Mercilessly separating families,

Where is humanity?

Our Uyghur sister cries.

Let's help them by spreading awareness, otherwise,

we might become a part of the torture and homicide.

The government will not take moves,

until WE ask them to.

Let's help them while we're able,

and remember that silence is as good as betrayal...
