Written by a BLM member.

I am black, a slave to white oppression

The white race enslaved my traditions, language, my body, but never my mind

The white society of America has hidden behind its privilege

Law tendered towards white protection has caused my brothers and sisters to grasp the bars of prison.

We are owed a place, a country, a voice to be what we are…

We are black, we are not racist, only the pigs, the police, the white race

are racist…

Burn it down if needed

Shout and demand the white race surrender to us

We are, black, and you will… hear us.

(ironic protest if written by a black person and deemed racist if written by a white person. Who can tell the true color of my skin? Definitely no human on this planet could ever come close, especially if they met me in a dream)
