Upon this land we do march today <br />For these liberties and dreams that are rightfully ours the constitution does say <br />Each man, each woman, red, yellow, black, or white <br />Is created equal in the eyes of the law and that is right. <br />Skin does not determine the people that we are <br />Yet it unrightfully determines the situations that we face. <br />Freedom that you take so lightly and without concern <br />Is the only thing for which we all yearn. <br />Give us our rights and we’ll give you back your street. <br />Or in Hell again all equal we shall meet.<br /><br />Chelsey M Smith<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/civil-rights-march/
