Eddie's POV:
There was this one time, right, I was was walking down my road and middle-age woman was walking past me, yeah, and she clutches her bag tighter as I walk past. You know why? I'm a 24 year old muscular black dude with tattoos all over my body who just escaped from prison but they don't know that. Racism may not be visible to you but it's still there. It's like gravity you can't see it but it's still there. This is my life. Apparently I'm some kind of illiterate dark skinned male and everyday people give me that look, you know the one where they with the raised eyebrow? yeah, that. "You don't belong here" "Your black get outta here" and they said America defeated racism. If there ain't no more racism why is it I can't walk a couple of blocks without people staring or being scared? and why is it that everytime I go to the convience store there's always the same cashier calling me a negro? I mean I buy your stuff and you really have the guts to call me that? I don't say anything because this is the closest store for miles where I can buy my food. People take me for granted I've changed but I can still bust your head in. That's all it is RACISM day in day out. You know why they treat me this way? I'm an only black guy in a white neighbourhood.
Adam's POV:
That negro always in my store, says he has to buy food and says I'm the only store for miles. I don't like his kind, never have and never will. My parents always taught to stay away from the negros 'cause they ain't nothing but trouble. As a kid I was never allowed to talk to them and the other kids they called me racist I never had no friends. I told my mum, there were tears rushing down her face and she asked me "why?" and I told her. She told me "try and fit in, just try"She always blamed me for the little things. It's just how I was raised I mean, I can't help it. People still call me a racist bastard. I say yeah, that's me. I can't deny what I know is the truth because the fact of the matter is that I'm just not into lying. I don't do it. I'm not a hypocrite either. Trust me. Atleast I fit in here. In a white neighbourhood.
