THE END OF AMERICA

THE END OF AMERICA

By SSESIMBA MAHAD

In the land of the free

The home of the brave

Some people have ceased being free

Some are no longer brave

 

This is an immigrant country

Where Europeans displaced native Indians,

Built with African blood

Blood of Africans who were dragged here in chains

A part of which was captured from Mexico

 

It’s independence was won

After a bloody battle against the British

In whose defeat the French helped

 

The union was preserved

By war, blood, iron fists, heroes, speeches…

But some of you forget this history

 

You want to cage a free people

In lies, hate, prejudice, racism, xenophobia, ignorance…

To cage them in walls, wires, mesh…

 

But there can be no America without immigrants

 

 

# JUSTICE MUST SERVE, JUSTICE FOR GEORGE FLOYD WHO WAS KILLED BY AMERICAN POLICE OFFICER

    “We should not only repent for the sins of evil doers but also for the Silence of the would be Society Lamps & Candles like Barack Obama & his entire family please fellow Blacks are bleeding & Your just facing off….Oppose this antihuman injustices.” Love is the solution.

  2. This is a wonderful piece of work I am impressed and educated. Keep on the good work.
    More of God’s Grace as you exil in your talent.

  3. Black or white we are one people, someday we shall stand before the almighty Lord and answer to our crimes. This should always be kept at the back of our minds

    Well, all this is happening in the US because the whites there forgot that it was the blacks who built that country and its riches. History will remind them and that’s what you just did. Bravo brother Mahad.

    I strongly believe in this write up by Ssesimba Mahad who is fully talented and a future prominent lawyer. An effective youth leader with visible fruits.
    America without black people is like food without salt. Black people have made America great and they deserve the same rights like other races in USA
