No Place For Racism

We very often hear There's no place for racism We quite often hear Racism is a form of fascism Imbecility, ignorance Bigotry and intolerance Racism is all of the above and more Racism has no boundary, no shoreline And no limit. Racism is everywhere In the school system, in the cemeteries In the Police precincts, in the presbyteries In the correctional system, at the fair And, of course, in the streets. We can longer bear No place for racism anywhere No place for fascism in the air and everywhere We can no longer tolerate this funky smell Which is poisoning the atmosphere and the well Racism and hypocrisy go hand in hand The bigots are sneaky and afraid to stand Against evilness and absurdities. Racism Is a cancer, an evil disease. It's a form of terrorism Let's all unite to eradicate and behead it Let's educate our children. Let's defeat Old ideas, which make no sense in today's society Unfortunately, we cannot change all knuckleheads A few who will always cause havoc. This is a tragedy Please stop calling them: white trashes and rednecks Because they are human too. Black people are not dumb Non-white people are not stupid. White people aren't dumb Let's stop the name callings, and be civilized to each other Racism is everywhere. Racism stinks like fish in the river. No place for racism In the presidential palace And in the workplace There's no place for racism Which is a form of fascism.
