Fear Of A Black Son

CATEGORY

life

Views: 293

The fear of the black son
Someone has to save them
Especially if dad is locked up
With only mama left to raise them
The fear of the black son so often ridiculed by fools
The fear of the black son to be constantly accused
The fear of the black son
He can't walk the streets
He is constantly harassed by white sheets and slithering corrupt police
The fear of the black son purposely miseducated
Killed by some of his own kind
A Lot of killings gang-related
They fear the black son
The one who makes wise decisions
They would rather lock them behind bars
The New slave life is the prison
The fear of the black son
My fear him becoming a Black man
Being a Black man in America
Praying hands
Understand
