    • I don't know if anyone here have come across this poem and if it has been posted here. But in any case, I'd love to share it with you guys.

      I was surfing the net and found this poem. Can't find the main source of this poem though..

       

      This poem was nominated by the UN as the best poem of 2006, written by an african kid.

      When I born, I black
      When I grow up, I black
      When I go in Sun, I black
      When I scared, I black
      When I sick, I black
      And when I die, I still black

      And you white fellow
      When you born, you pink
      When you grow up, you white
      When you go in sun, you red
      When you cold, you blue
      When you scared, you yellow
      When you sick, you green
      And when you die, you gray
      And you calling me colored??
