What would you do if you were in their shoes?!
Racism, how does one start writing about this world-wide dilemma? I’m only going to stick to the borders of my country though. I know that I’m not the first person to attempt writing about it, and some would probably say I’m repetitive and unoriginal, but I DON’T CARE!!! Because every person’s thought counts, and ever person’s feeling, IS ORIGINAL! It hurts; it literally hurts me when I see how people with black skin are treated
as an inferior race. Who gave the white race an upper hand? Why would color only be the judge of that person’s entire life? Allah created both the black and the white that way, why should there be any difference, but in the obvious color difference? It’s a simple why! No hidden depths in this question, not a deeper meaning embedded beneath it, just, WHY?

How would you like it if people ordered you around and treated you like dirt?
How frustrated would you get, and how insulted would you feel if you have
to shut up and take in, because almost in all cases your job depends on it? How would THAT feel??? I don’t even want to know how I would feel; just thinking about it makes me mad, how about living it, EVERY, DAY, OF, YOUR ,LIFE?

I know that all these words are practically gibberish, life a blank cheque, but there is not much I can do, words with no action, to me it’s a moral epidemic. I just hope this blank cheque of mine makes someone think what would they do if they were in their shoes?
I’ll leave u with an excerpt of Robert Kennedy’s speech, “On the Mindless Menace of Violence” written after the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King.
“Some look for scapegoats, others look for conspiracies, but this much is clear: violence breeds violence, repression brings retaliation, and only a cleansing of our whole society can remove this sickness from our soul. ““For there is another kind of violence, slower but just as deadly destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night. This is the violence of institutions; indifference and inaction and slow decay. This is the violence that afflicts the poor, that poisons relations between men because their skin has different colours. This is the slow destruction of a child by hunger, and schools without books and homes without heat in the winter. “
