FAREWARE TO RACISM (Written BY @brainz)
Beside a white chair stood a black table looking so good together from a distance, A young black boy stares at it from a distance in curiosity, he walks closer to what has caught his attention before his eyes sets a Black Chair seated close to a white Table, his eyes pops out in awe and surprise,not because he is new to seeing chairs,but because this combination is bringing back memories of a tale..but the perfectness of this colors together disturbs him and makes him drift back to the past and wonders
He said within himself what could this mean, are things changing already, why is a black chair seated beside a white chair.
Inside his thoughts he recounts the tales told by his father about how the white will always be superior, how everything good represents white..This young black boy wonders deeper, tries to understand how a white table close to a black chair would make the black bad, since it looked so good together from a distance and even closer .
He walked more closely and sat on the black chair that suit the color of his skin, he rest his back confidently with a grin on his face,He placed his feet on the white table with a gaze upon his face like a child caught on a prank and felts its nothing but his parents thinks otherwise..
Am i doing the right thing placing my dirty legs on this white table that is standing harmless beside me and this black chair?
He took down his legs, took off his cloth, and cleaned the table off the dirt his feet had placed on the white table, there was the winds blowing cool breeze he became sleepy , there He placed his cloth the table and laid down his head and his eyes drifted off to sleep, Minutes later he began to hear voices, hovering from a distance to his ears.
He open his eyes there he saw a young white boy and a girl staring at him from a distance, he was stunned, started to feel jittery because his head had just left a white table!
In his mind he began to conclude this table belongs to this folks, but who owns this black chair i am seated on? as he was lost in on his own thought, He heard....
Hello there, are you okay? coming from the white boy, he was confused but mange to reply Hey, i am fine thanks, this two walked toward him and offered him a handshake.
He was still confused in his mind but shook them back and he offered them a seat by standing up , he was surprised to have seen one of them seat on the black chair even when they were not balanced on it.
He then asked , what are your names, the boy said i am Ray and the girl replied call me Meg, Then he said Ray and Meg are you the owner of this Table? And they replied Nope! It's not ours mate, Meg What is your name, and why do you ask?
He replied call me Kelly, i was only curious he said cause anything white belongs to you white folks, Sam and Meg laughed and said color has nothing to do without skin!
Cause we are white doesn't mean we own all that is white, you can own anything with any color of your choice, then he told them the story his father told him about the whites!
Sam and Meg smiled and told him the story their dad had told them about the blacks, And Kelly said so the color of our skin does not justify what we think of each other, Sam and Meg shook their heads and said our fathers might have had their differences before, but we are not our fathers, let us become fathers that our future children will forever be proud of, fathers who will instill kindness and equality, fathers who teaches love for all race cause the color of our skin is not the color of our hearts..
Then these three young men walked hand in hand, playfully and excitedly to their homes, unaware of the simple amazing fact of their innocent display, oblivious to the fact that unknowingly they have made the greatest decisions to rise above hate and instead embrace love, for not just them but their generations to come.

Mother of this write up is to make everyone on Steemit and the entire world understands we are all one our skin color define or affect our heart cause our heart bares one color.

Wow, this is beautiful! Love conquers all, and we should see beyond the colour of skin. With great love bond we can work better and make the world a better place.
We need to understand that our world is full of people with different races and we should love them for who they are and what their colour is.
Fighting them is nowhere near good.
Thanks , you are very right!
