Just me thinking out loud about color issues, that are still floating around in the air. It will be a dream come true, when we wake up and forget about color issues.

What separate you from me?

Identity

(Ones unique personal qualities)

So if that be true

We should embrace one another

You’re ideology is not going to be the same as mine

And that’s fine

We live in a multicultural society

We are expected to be different

The idiocy of such acts is not trifling at all

It is a big deal, when you come off as to uplift your identity and surprises mine

Who cares if you’re skin is whiter then mine

What does it matter if I was born on the south side and you on the east side

Is it more important if you have more money in you’re hip pocket

then I have in my back pocket

I believe the problems lies in our ability to compromise

Let us sit at the table of righteousness and discuss this

Then we can dismiss all this silliness

I’ll respect you’re story and you do the same with mine

All we want is a hand up not a hand out

We don’t have to scream and shout

Respect is what it’s all about

    This is very nice, and I have to agree with you, respect is what it is all about.
