United we stand Divided we fall This Nation is Grand? No, not at all
Hatred for a human being Because one doesn't understand I can't believe what I am seeing I can't believe this land
Cover our eyes from the truth Plug our ears to their words Quiet them down, remain aloof Pretend they never heard
This can't be the land of the free The land of the very brave Tears, fear and death I see This is America the Grave
I am utterly speechless. Today began as any day does, and ended with my eyes seeing clearly how deep this problem is. Today over 100 students in my school, mostly Muslim, felt that they needed to protest just for them to be heard. Discrimination is at large. Our administration has turned a blind eye to them, and in thus they have let down a large part of our student body. To feel harassed and discriminated against, even unsafe at times, should never be allowed. I am disgusted not only with our administration, who instead of hearing these kids out, decided to put our school in a containment that also took away from our learning, but also the students. We as people belong. We as people deserve the freedom to religion, appearance, language, and life. Stop the hate.
