Liberian Literary Magazine

Not all obnoxious racists
lack some forms of
education
Many of them have
advanced degrees, their
contention
Is that those steadfast
fools want to protect the
status quos
They create all types of
standard in order to block

Or prevent Non-Whites
from reaching their
potentials
They discriminate,
humiliate, make fun of
and mocked
Anybody that they
consider weak
intellectually
Or inferior. Racism is
about hate, greed, and
bigotry.
Racism is about
prejudice, shame, and
ignorance
It is about not giving
somebody a one-time
chance

Promoting Liberian literature, Arts and Culture

It is about not second
guessing. They just start
shooting
Killing, destroying,
discriminating and
annihilating
Racism is about insecurity,
and putting up blocks
Some Caucasians and
others feel better than or
superior
To Asians, Indians,
Africans, Afro- Americans
or Blacks
Those Whites have a
mental state which is
inferior
Deficient, weak, hollow,
feeble, unstable, and
challenged
Regardless, many Whites
will die as racists; they will
not change
And others, who are
quietly biased, will be a
bit tolerant
But they remain very
dangerous, by being
secretly defiant.
Racism is a deadly illness,
a cancer
Racism about being rude
and unfair
To other people by
treating
Them badly, differently
And inhumanely
By poking them with a
toxic syringe
Racism is to lead a
rambunctious mob
Against someone who is
innocent
Racism is to hire an African
to do a job

25

And then creating a
hostile working
environment
Because he or she looks
different
There is nothing good
about racism
It is a form injustice,
violence and fascism.
