Why?

Some things that people do in this world are outstanding. Outstanding meaning standing out from other things that people do. These outstanding things are most often ridiculous. Take a moment to think why our world now is so crazy and mixed up.

Think about this:

Why do we make fun of other races, calling them "colored" or "aliens", while in their eyes, we probably look the same way?


This is a poem written by an African kid. It was nominated by the UN as the best person.

"When I born, I black 
When I grow up, I black 
When I go in Sun, I black 
When I scared, I black 
When I sick, I black 
And when I die, I still black 

And you white fellow 
When you born, you pink 
When you grow up, you white 

When you go in sun, you red 

When you cold, you blue 

When you scared, you yellow 

When you sick, you green 

And when you die, you gray 


And you calling me colored?"

What is the problem with America? 

Why do we do these things? 

What can we do to change it?
