African- American

A group of people who I share a history with.
Friends greet each other with undefinable slang
Remember the Civil Rights movement that exploded with a bang
I will never forget the pain I was put through for being black
Cities in the U.S. have people who show animosity towards us
At every time in my life I see more death than life
Notice how my race is abused daily

Any body would know that the N word is offensive
My brown eyes flood with memories of past troubles
Elevate your voice to deliver your message from the highest peak
Remember the suffering our ancestors endured as slaves
I’m more than a representative of my race
Convictions of a racist are unleashed in provocative displays
African-Americans like me still want social justice instead of injustice
Negro was the name in the past, but in the future we are known by the term Nubian
