My Profile

The idea of skin color plays a significant role in peoples' lives.

It defines who we are before we even open our mouths.

Tonight, I was racially profiled- not a witness, but a victim of it.

My being wants to lash out, but somewhere deep within all that I am, I know that would make matters worse.

So instead, I share my love, my kindness, my patience, and my tolerance.

And I'll stubbornly wait until things change.

Because they have to...

...right?
