Black History Month

As time goes on we always hope That advancement is being made So in the case of Black History We must never let progress fade We want to learn and become better And treat everyone with dignity As the sunrises and the sun sets We must have freedom and equality For freedom is granted to everyone That’s what makes our country great And it wasn’t always that way, of course It took time to abolished slavery in every state But progress continues to march on And although we cannot erase the past Most of us try to treat each other fairly If we do, I think that this progress will last So let’s remember Black History Month Let’s learn from so many past mistakes And continue making progress each day Remember that fairness is what it takes!
