Racism is a horrible thing

Yes I'm white

But that doesn't mean shit

I am also Native American

I an best friends with a black girl

I'm a huge fan of a very popular Asian

But they seem to be discriminated against in pur country

America needs to WAKE THE FUCK UP!

I'm tired of my best friend being checked three times before we can enter a concert

The cops always keeping close by

Just because they think she will do something

My Japanese friend can't walk in the U.S. without being asked a thousand questions and almost being denied her basic rights

So why can't racism stop?

Because "all white people" are the same?

My black friend says I'm an "honorary black girl" since I treat her like I treat all my friends

My Japanese friend wishes all white people were like me

The Asian I'm a fan of wants racism to end

Why can't it stop?

Because the white people who only care about being on top of everything will discriminate against everyone

We aren't living in the 1800's people nor the 1900's
