Dear America,

Enough with the slaughtering of people.

Enough with the mass murders.

Enough with the hate crimes.

Enough with the black-on-black brutality.

Enough with the powerful eliminating the powerless.

Enough with the miseducation of Negroes, Lauryn Hill, and everyone else.

Enough with the race games and race baiting.

Enough with the overweening politics that overlook the rampant poverty.

Enough with the poverty that goes far beyond socio-economic concerns to the poverty of our mores and morality.

Enough with the lip service that everyone is free and equal when the reality indicates everyone is not.

Enough with the cradle-to-prision pipeline.

Enough with the hatred based on complexion, home language, and country of origin.

Enough.

Sincerely,

A concerned citizen who loves her country
