#equalityforall
I am not a feminist but, an emotional being— a soul that belongs neither here nor there, simply human, a heart that feels. Everyone should look through the glasses of equality, a lens without hierarchy. Bring every opinion to the middle of the bridge where no one is misandrist, no one misogynist. Let us not hide behind walls of excuses, built from prejudice— bricks too weak can't hold the truth. Yesterday, I reached out my hands for your growth. Today, it is your turn to lift me. And one day, we will finally stand together— not as labels, but as human beings.

I’m not black. I’m not black but I see how you’re mistreated I’m only 13 but I fight for the people who have pleaded And begged to be free of all the pain, they just want to get away But still we make ‘em stay Who are we for killing them anyway? See I’ve been wishing and praying that the world will be changing Soon Cause I don’t want to be out on a sunny afternoon And see the yellow tape Blocking my way Making me late But I don’t care. I wanna stay And help The people crying in the streets cause someone’s dying in the streets With a knee up to their neck Or a gun up to their head No reason for them to be dead except the fact That they are black. And that’s not right. We have to fight for what’s right Because blacks are people We’re all equals I know it. And there’s no doubt that you know it too So stand up, speak out It’s the right thing to do.

We're all equals( a rap/spoken word poem)
"Sleep no more." The girl hangs her head in shame. "Sleep no more." Says the rich man in vain. "Sleep no more." Cries the mother in pain. "Sleep no more." A teenager lies alone. "Sleep no more." Whispers the wind all alone. "Sleep no more." We say as our true selves are shown. It does not matter who or what you are. If you are a rich man or a lonely weeper We are all equal in the eyes of the Reaper.
