A poem by an African Man
Dear White fella............ Couple  of things you should know.....
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 fella,
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 ???????????
