Slavery Is No Joke

No joke about slavery No joke about racism No joke about nazism No joke about bigotry. Slavery is a crime against humanity Slavery is painful and humiliating Slavery is about no human dignity It is about hurting, suffering, and killing. A slave is a human being, a person Who breathes like you, dreams like you Inspires, perspires, thinks and hopes like you It is a mortal sin to enslave a sibling, a human. Slavery is wrong, cruel, demeaning, inhuman, and hurtful Slavery is a very serious and barbaric crime against humanity Nobody should condone it. Slavery is shameful and deadly No excuses for it. Slavery destroys the heart and soul. Slavery is insulting. It is the worst obnoxious nightmare That you can imagine. Slavery is evil, wrong and unfair There should be no jokes, no excuses for slavery There should be no jokes, no nonsense about bigotry. It is unfathomable that slavery is practiced in Libya Or elsewhere in modern time. Africa, Africa, Africa Wake-up to fight against poverty, racism, and discrimination Europe, America, Asia, wake-up to fight against exploitation. It is unacceptable to treat human beings worse than animals Slavery is no joke. Let's declare war against immoral roles Ignorance, fear, apathy, lack of respect, sleaze, and fleas Slavery is a terrible cancer, which cannot be used in comedies. No joke about slavery No joke about racism No joke about sexism No joke about bigotry.
