The Stolen Legacy


From the Great Continent we were stolen,
shipped over-night like a FedEx package to a foreign land,
forced apart because they knew our blood was richer,
because they knew that if they separated us we would fall.
And fallen we have,
because centruies after we still do not know our legacy.
We still cannot truly say we are Africans nor can we truly say we are
Americans.
The legacy that was stolen from us will never be reclaimed until we stand
up and realize that we are not free, that slavery
is so deep rooted into our being that it will take
more than speeches and marches to break the chains.
Not until we unite as a people and break the chains, and search for
that which matters most . . . . . .
YOUR LEGACY.
P.E.A.C.E. & UNDERSTANDING
