Brother Jesse thinks he’s black <br />You and I know better than that <br />Brother George thinks he is white <br />You and I know that’s not right <br /> <br />Black and white and yellow and red <br />Are shades of brown etched in your head <br />When will we all grow up and see <br />the colour brown we’re meant to be? <br /> <br />See that man with kinky hair <br />See that Asian standing there <br />Arabs, Indians all the others <br />Wake up W*A*S*P…they are your brothers <br /> <br />Evolution or Creation <br />We’re all meant to be one nation <br />Cast aside the colours you’ve found <br />We’re really all just shades of brown<br /><br />Kenneth Snow<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/shades-of-brown-earth/
