This is a gripping powerful piece of the puzzle. Many years ago over twenty or more, I read a book with the tilte Mandingo. Can't remember the author, but never forgot the contents of the book. Needless to say it was both horrifying and enlightening.
Zenith, this is incredibly well-written speaking truths many Americans don't want to hear, why even the world doesn't want to hear. As God said, we all are of one blood; yet, many seem to think theirs is different. Go figure. Love in Christ~~ BonnieQ
This is a moving poem. In all races the toil of slavery reaped it's seed. You are not alone in your quest. The quest for harmony in all races are a part of us all. Well, at least those of us who have true emotions for their fellow man and faith in believing this will truly come to pass.
great write!

still we struggle, we still survive
so far we have come, so far to go>
equality and justice one day we'll know.>
Hit the nail right on the head!
