The ABC's of a White Man

Africa, our Land, our Continent, our Haven.

The place where Black people roamed free without a care, that was until we were Captured by the white man.

Doomed were we as soon as the soles of our ancestor’s feet touched the wooden planks of the boats we were forced into.

We were the Enemies in your eyes and it was your calling to Fight us until we fell.

Listen, God is our strength and until he turns his back on us, our courage is invincible.

Dear White man, please have a Heart, your Insouciant behaviour to the Justice system Killing off my black people is nauseating!

Lord, please help us!

This is not what Mother Nature intended!

Let’s not be Naïve, this world belongs to the white man, our Opportunity to shine is and forever will be limited, we know that.

Police…. *** ‘em, I have zero words for most of you, your Quest to kill us all is coming to fruition.

You call us Racists, yet you were the ones that turned us into Slaves, we were Taken from our Unity and treated like Victims, why, because we are different from you??

White man, white man, white man

Why do you suffer from Xenophobia? Yet, you were the ones that brought us to your land.

I wish for peace, I wish for positivity and I wish the end of my people being treated like animals in the Zoo.

 

Look…

 

I am not a racist, neither am I an activist. I am just a black woman who had a dream and now enough is enough.
