Part 2: We were robbed. Wake up, black child. You are on your own!

Yes! I have seen them appearing from the hypothetical great corners of the universe. Dying to see the soul of an innocence evacuated, sailing the body behind the hearse.  
   
The weeping family is constantly following the hearse, and the little ones are crying like they understand the meaning of it all. I guess that’s what makes the scene worse.  
   
Foes continuously planning how to disrupt your next move because you are a threat to their plans. That's only happening because you were delivered through a sacred verse.  
   
I am stubbornly insisting on pronouncing what has been stolen from the people of color. Just hope it all becomes the voice of reason for the upcoming leaders of our underrated race.  
   
The same interpersonal communication concept prevails: only the receiver is expected to understand most about the sender. The confusion to the immense power we have.  
   
They taught us love in the name of "Romance". I wish the same teachers tried to revert to our ancient practices for lessons instead of committing such a great masquerade.  
 
We were taught about worshipping in the name of the "Gospel". I wonder what might have happened to my forefathers if they had willingly agreed to fall into such a trap.  
 
We were taught how to think in the name of "Curriculum". I wonder under whose criteria were we being classified under? Aren't these the acts of insanity?
 
We were taught about dress codes in the name of "Fashion" and eating healthy in the name of "Diet." But last time of my review I was loved, raised, dressed, and fed traditionally!  
 
We were taught how to reluctantly meditate and focus on our ancient creeds and dogmas just to survive. Yes, in the name of "Christianity". But Spirituality came before Christianity!
  
Behold what they stole from our underrated race. Not only because the deeds of attaining their mission’s goals were so vicious, but they remained in solidarity and also in unity!  
 
What happened today? Am I a pharmaceutical product of the current times? I have to tie a knot because I might be thier business in their world of artifacts and currencies!
