I see the sickness in every culture on earth as they hide or marginalize their dark skinned ones.

Denying any traces in their DNA
that showcase the trail of migration.

Every culture has a word or phrase
an attitude of disdain.

Where there is fair skin or dark skin
colorism persists.

You see old photos from Asia to Africa to the Americas of people darkened by the sun; yet, they wipe down the history
to praise and feature the light...
