Prejudice
Prejudice
I am tired of all the prejudice in the world In the class room, at work, in the mall, on the road Teachers, moms, dads, kids, young, old, white, black It feels like getting shot in the back They single you out because they don’t like how you act They can’t even come up with any facts You feel the rage and the pain it makes You quiver, twitch, spazz and shake They put you down You want to drown I am tired of all the prejudice in the world I want it to stop But you know it won’t They won’t stop, no way, no how It will always exist until our dying day Daniel Brown Theme : Everywhere we look, there will always be prejudice. Prejudice is found in everyone.

How do we deal with prejudice
even those of us who've worked very hard at not being prejudiced, have some type of prejudice remaining. for example: it could be prejudice by color, over religion, over political views, concerning sexual orient- ation.... prejudice against those who have money, or those who dont! ...etc. all prejudice is wrong by nature, most of it grounded in the 'self'... in our own irrational fears, and our stubborn streak of ignorance.... it's always taught, but doesnt have to be allowed! it often hides under the banner of morality, or the flags of patriotism... we battle prejudice by being open minded, being willing to listen, and learning to see ourselves in other people... if we say we have no prejudices, we have lost, and prejudice has us bound. if we admit our prejudices, name them, look at them with naked eyes and resolve, then we're making headway.... prejudice in the end is humanity failing to be human! being human is a 24 hour a day,7 days a week job! Eric Cockrell Theme : Prejudice exists even when you think it's gone. We should accept the fact that we are all prejudice.

It's a disease
Prejudice is a disease. Unlike deadly viruses; West Nile and S.A.R.S Prejudice does not harm you. Prejudice is an alcohol, that brain-washes you. Makes you think some people deserve less than you because they are different. Just because their skin colour is different Or because they dress differently. Maybe because of their differences in religion or because of their difference in sexuality. The truth is, Prejudice may not be able to harm you, But it is the deadliest disease that ever entered our planet. It is this disease that gets people murdered, and then some thrown in jail. It is this disease that starts gangs against people who are different. And it is this disease that has our world in a problem today. So whatever you do, Never let this disease into your body or else you life will be gone-forever. Niru Raj Theme : Prejudice is everywhere which spreads quickly. We shouldn't let it take over us.

Pains of Prejudice
I have experienced pain Undeserving and vivid pain Pains of rejection and pains prejudice Pain when my rights were wronged. Pains while others endure undue harm My heart aches, my mind bruised From pains of emotional abuse. I have seen and experienced it Read about it, still living it. Pains of prejudice. C. Albert Andrews Theme : Prejudice is cruel. It hurts people and people live through it everyday.
