Not White Trash

NaPoMO Entry 9 04/09/2024

 

Don’t call me a honky or cracker.

Hell yeah, I am redneck as you have heard.

I am not White trash and or Trailer slacker,

Those terms are as offensive as the N word.

 

Racism in my book is a two-way street.

No matter who is doing the discriminating.

It is something we should fight and defeat,

No matter who, prejudice is wholly irritating.

 

I take each human on the own merit,

No matter skin color, faith, or gender.

I hope my daughter did inherit,

And picks up the fight without surrender.

 

Cast your aspersions for I am impervious,

For you are the one being discourteous!

My grandparents were KKK in Faison, NC. Just watching their profound racism made me want to go the opposite road.
In return, I have been almost raped by black guys in the 5th grade and beyond. I was forced into being bused to all black schools as part of the integration experiment. I quit school in the 8th grade.
Thanks for showing it is definitely a two way street.
