Howling screams of affirmative action

Howling screams of affirmative action

A fear of blackness.

What right do you have to be here

If it was not a quota?

This is the daily chore of black excellence.

Always questioned

Dissected.

Ridiculed.

Demonised.

The arrogance of the status quo.

A belief that wealth is a creation of whiteness.

The country club network

Of influence and exclusion.

Aah captains of industry.

Oligarchs of Exclusion.

Thé social construct of racism thrives.

In an economic system

That perpetuates white privilege.

Is it not also a prison

To keep the other out?

Was ill-gotten wealth not a stepping stone of privilege.

A right every child should hold

Irrespective of status and race.

Where it not the betrayal of the political elite.

We have a choice

To break out of our black and white prisons

Aah then the sweet taste of magic

Weaving.

Interconnecting with the tapestry of color, culture, race and difference

Without the prejudice of ancestors.

And wisdom conquers fear

We break the chains of our fight or flight animal instincts

And embrace the birth of our Nation

One where we embrace diversity

Building the path to a new beginning.

Touched by the wisdom

That we are all One.

From the same Source

And we see how important

Our heartbeat is in the cosmos.
