Black?

Black! What is the crime in being black?

What is the meaning of black? 

Why must I be tormented for the colour of my skin?

Why must I struggle for equality and recognition and feel hate stare at me?

Why must I be the epitome of everything wrong and dreaded by society?

Why must I be a victim of existence and live in the continuous fear of uncertainty?

Why must I be black and not recognized by race?

Why must I continually live the struggles of the past today?

Why must history be a constant reminder of who or what I am?

Why must I be black?

Why must black be a colour?

Why Black?
