White America-Me... Poem by Lore Me34
White America-Me...
I often feel like a black spot on new white sheets.
This is white America-me.
They say my music is not music but more a call to violence.
White America-me.
They tell me my people are free if this true why do the prisons look like an old southern plantation. White America-me.
Most of the schools where my people go are shut down. They say it's because of low test scores. I believe it's because they really want to keep us dumb. White America-me.
I often feel like a black spot on new white sheets.
White America-me.

Well, I can't really understand how it feels to be black in America.......but, I can say that my town is a pretty good mix of all races. My kids have friends of all races and so do my husband and I. It's easy for me to say ''It's not really like that! '' but, I know life is different for everyone. Just know that just as blacks don't want to be thought of as ''one''......neither do whites. Some may want to ''keep you dumb''.......I don't. Great write Ronald! Sincerely, Mary
