Tearing Down the Walls of Racism: A Prose Poem for Equality
Tearing down the walls of racism is a battle that has been fought for centuries. Despite progress, the fight still rages on. In this prose poem, we explore the idea of dismantling the oppressive systems that allow racism to thrive. It is a call to action, to tear down the walls that divide us and build bridges of empathy, compassion, and understanding. Through the power of words, we aim to inspire change and promote equality for all. Let us join hands and work towards a world where skin color is not a determinant of one’s worth or value.
We are not back on our knees, as our voices have grown stronger, Our spirits unbroken, our will to fight even longer. For too long we’ve been oppressed, silenced, and ignored, Treated as less than human, our worth constantly deplored.
But we refuse to be silenced, to let hate be our fate, We will rise up against racism, and never capitulate. We will stand tall and strong, with our heads held high, For justice, for equality, for our rights to live and thrive.
We will tear down the walls of racism, brick by brick, With the power of our unity, with the strength of our kick. We will shatter the chains of oppression, that bind us to the ground, And we will rise like phoenixes, with a courage that astounds.
We are warriors of love, of compassion, of hope, We will never let racism win, never let it have a rope. We will fight with all our might, with every breath we take, And we will win this battle, for our children’s sake.
For they deserve a world where they are judged by their heart, Not the color of their skin, or the place of their start. They deserve to be loved, respected, and seen, For the beautiful souls they are, not the color of their skin.
So let us come together, in a world where love reigns, Where equality and justice are not just empty refrains. Let us build bridges, not walls, and tear down the hate, And create a world where we all can thrive and celebrate.
Let us stand united, with our fists raised high, And let the world hear our voices, as we raise our battle cry. For we are warriors of love, of compassion, of hope, And we will tear down the walls of racism, and never lose our scope.
So let us march forward, with our hearts full of fire, And let us ignite a revolution, that will never expire. For we are not back on our knees, but standing tall and strong, And we will fight until the end, until justice and equality belong.
