Some Things Will Never Change

Stares.
From left to right.
Whispers.
From behind.
Smirks and laughs.
From every direction. 
 
White & White.
Normal.
Black & Black.
Normal.
White & Black.
Awkward. 
 
Why? 
What’s the issue? 
Race is just a color right?
No. 
 
Interracial relationships. 
Normal? Awkward? 
Popular. 
 
In today’s society black and whites being in relationships with one another is becoming more and more common yet so people still look down upon interracial relationships.  If I could change anything in our world it would not be to ask for world peace, or to make everyone rich, but it would be to eliminate racism.
