This is a poem written by an African child and was nominated for "Best Poem of 2005":
When I born, I black.
When I grow up, I black.
When I go in sun, I black.
When I cold, I black.
When I scared, I black.
When I sick, I black.
And when I die; I still black.
And Ü white fellows;
When U born, U pink.
When U grow up, U white.
When U go in sun, U red.
When U cold, U blue.
When you scared, U yellow.
When U sick, U green.
When U die, U grey.
And U call me colored.
