Character, Not Color

If I could change one thing

I would end discrimination based on race.

It's not about our skin color

We're all the same.

 

Colleges ask you to state your race

But why does that matter?

We need to be viewed by our character

Not our descent.

 

We shouldn't be denied scholarships

because we aren't a certain color.

It just doesn't matter

We need to look at our successes instead.
