Poem: Black History Equality

 My poem is about equality throughout black history. Throughout black history, people of color, especially black people, have been mistreated and dealt with racism for so long. That's basically my inspiration along with the stuff that's been going on today like the rights, BLM, all of those movements. So here's my poem.



Black History Equality



Black History,

A history that will never be forgotten.

Our ancestors,

normal human beings,

were taken by the hands of Europeans.

Enslaved to satisfy their needs,

suffered in pain, tortured and mistreated,

dealing with racism,

from generation to generation.

But that never discouraged them,

because they continued to fight.

They deserve to have rights.

Today isn’t it the same way?

Still fighting for equality among society.

Movements that express how we feel,

the change we need so we can start to heal.

Our ancestors have planted those seeds,

so our voices could be heard. 

Until there comes a day.

where everyone can live amongst each other,

and not be judged by the color of our skin,

but to be judged by our personality and who we are.
