I’m about as white as they come.
I got family that came over on the Mayflower.
I have a Caucasian pedigree.
But I fail to see what makes Supremacist white
superior to the white of me.
Their white power is fueled by hate
that feeds on destruction.
My white power is fueld by love
that feeds on the Resurrection.
They use their power to suppress.
I use mine to empower the repressed.
You put down
that which I would lift up.
You might think your white be praised,
but it doesn’t seem very white to me
compared to the white in which I was raised.
