They told me I was white
Because I did not speak like the other black girls
So I stopped talking
And learned to write instead.
I hid behind the written word
So that no one would ever call me that again.
They told me I was white
Because I did not speak like the other black girls
So I stopped talking
And learned to write instead.
I hid behind the written word
So that no one would ever call me that again.
