Brother is now against sister. Friend is against friends. For so long we fought for equality, now it is all at an end. One life matters more than another as nothing makes any sense. Laws are flaunted and disregarded for anarchy. This has replaced civility and decency. Those who once were down with the struggle, now only look out for themselves. Their ideals have been compromised for gold and their morals have been placed on dusty shelves. Where are the color lines drawn that once were a blur. They have been redrawn by those who fought to erase them and the sacrifices of the past have been lost.
