an outward appearance?
or an inward experience?
does it define a person?
or does the person define it?
has it divided the world?
or has the world divided it?
is it from my mother?
or rather my father?
does it carry stigma?
or stigma has carried it?
is black shame?
is white yaaay?
does it change?
or do you change it?
do you accept it?
or live in rejection?
is it a social construct?
or a biological classification?
