Let Our Voices Be Heard

     Injustice, cruelty, and hate have been around for years but it was prominent in the 1950's, 1960's. During these decades, colored-skin people had to face racism due to their skin and many were assassinated, followed, tortured, and enslaved. Even though they won the fight for their rights, they are still fighting for respect, their place in society, and peace, as well as Latinos, the LGBTQIA community, and other groups in society.

Hate has always been around

It comes all the way from Cain and Abel

People fight because skin is either white or brown

Fighting for causes like fighting for the last piece of bread on the table

Of course people fight for other reasons

But physical differences are the winners

Like in the 50’s and 60’s, for many seasons

In which Black people were seen as sinners

They fought for their rights and won

But did they win entirely? I think not

For they are still fighting but they’re not alone

Fighting different fights but we’re all in a knot

Raise your voice, loud and clear

Use your words, wisdom, and courage

Let’s all come together and forget the fear

We must let our fire rage

Where's The Love? Music Video- this song is about how people must come together in order to stand up against injustices
