Creating Art

Start Young

Treasure your culture; take value in your beliefs

Because all our differences make us unique.

Our similarities bring us closer; while the unknown tear us apart.

We need to have patience and acceptance from the start.

Teach them early; give them respect

For misinformation is something we tend to regret.

Our want for equality; our willingness to persist

Will hopefully one day make it hard to resist

The many ways we can all overcome the fear


And someday justice for all will appear.

  2. I am impressed by anyone that creates poetry and your poem did an excellent job of conveying the importance of anti-bias education and the appreciation for diversity. We are helping the next generation investigate issues of injustice and stand up for equity for all. Thanks for sharing!
