I have this game I like to play. You'll need a dice. Unfortunately, many people discriminate against me and this game I've made. They've made a whole group with numerous members that try to find me and stop me playing this game.

They dont understand, I've grown up playing with myself. I had one friend growing up, other kids bullied me. At first, I thought it was because I was darker than them. I was the only black going to a white school. In fact I was the only black person in my entire town. I dealt with racism frequently and to top that off, I didn't even have parents that would teach me how to handle it properly, or any siblings that would be there to back me up if older kids ever picked on me. I think I can accept now that I didn't take it well.

Even my foster home was abusive to me, with the way I grew up you'd think I'd be a bad boy, someone who hurts people without reason, into drug-dealing, basically a thug. Fortunately, I'm not. I was gifted, no one noticed it then, maybe because no one looked hard enough. But now I know, and that's what matters. I know im talented and I can use that to my advantage. They slept on me then but now they'll regret it.

You're probably wondering what I was so talented at. Well it was art. In any form, dance, music drawing, painting, theater. I was creative. I was constantly writing poems, creating plays, learning dances, painting, acting and composing music. There was this project at school. To create a board-game. I think I had to be around 8 or 9.

I did very well, I got really nice comments by the teacher. Alas, I was black so I didn't get first place. I was so proud of my work and I wanted it to be recognised, get it what it deserved. But I was in the minority. I still think about it. It's 20 years later, and I remember it. So clearly.

People have said that the times have changed. Racism is on down-low, much better than 20 years ago. But, is it really? or is it just an illusion? Racism still exists. It may not be as harsh as it used to be, or as prominent. But you can't deny it's still here. Here to thrive.

I want to end that.

I will go through any means to end it.

I'll show this town that being black isn't a bad thing, I'll dominate this town.
