We are privileged humans,
The United States grants us freedom.
All of us as citizens
Have the same opportunity to bloom.

But are we really free?
We have freedom that is granted to us from the law
But how many of our thoughts are enslaved by moors?
Are we oblivious to the white America that we live under?

Yes, we are more privileged than other nations,
And for that I am grateful.
But, there is a huge space
For improvement.
“To form a more perfect union”.

We are being stripped away from experiences,

Read the rest of the poem Show less

There is value in being in someone’s presence.
In going up to them, and building a relationship.
The way we converse in our generation
Is just a click away.

All of our generation relying on the internet
To do their work for them.
Believing in misconceptions
provided mainly in
“Social media”.

Social media.
More like,
“this is making us unsocial media”.
Building Stigmas And stereotypes
Faster than ever before.

Let’s free ourselves
To all the extend of the word.
Think for yourself,
Judge for yourself,
Listen to yourself,
Be Yourself.
