Black People are human beings just like any other race, scientists say that the first men originated in Africa, who are we to judge and criticize , in the old time days long before the sterling examples of my Jamaican national heroes stood up not only for Jamaica but the entire world that black people are someone like us, long before that a mother and daughter duet , Edith and Edna stood up for the blacks, showing us that color is nothing compared to the love we have for others, I want us to look on each other and to know that we wattpaders are families and we should love each other just as ourselves.

Some say my work is relatable and some feel they can relate. That's crazy though, makes me want to be heard. I was quiet as feathers basically my whole life, closed up, antisocial, lost. Until I started writing. Although, I didn't open my mouth, I was even louder than before. Excuse me, I am louder!Complete
