Our History Book Poem by Randy McClave

If you want to learn more about the United States
Look inside a history book,
Read it to your friends and also your classmates
But, of course only if you're allowed to look.
Read the true history all about the U.S
Before the U.S history book is banned,
It was created before In God We Trust
That is how our country was founded and where we stand.
Let's then read about our bravery
And how our great country was founded,
We must also read about our belief in slavery
And unto it racists and bigot were bounded.
Let's read our founding fathers story
And how they landed upon this sand,
Immigrants seeking freedom for every man, woman, girl and boy
As they stole the Native American's land.
We must also read about all of our forefathers
And what they believed and also fought for,
Though their beliefs unto many it bothers
Read it, before our history books are banned and are no more.
