Racism Poem by Shannon Atherton

Racism is just so wrong
It makes people feel they don't belong.
It doesn't matter, the colour of your skin;
What's important is what lies within.

STOP all the calling
STOP all the names
STOP all the violence
We're all the same

Why be so nasty,
Why not get along?
If you agree then join in with this song.

Because as I was saying,
It really isn't nice
to feel like you're an outcast.
So before you speak, think twice.

So let's try our best to be a better population,
Spreading joy throughout the world, becoming one whole nation.
We're all different in some way, however strange this might be,
So let's unite as one world; there's no 'I' in 'we'.
