Racism is bred by leaders who seek followers bringing division and confusion amongst the nations.

—————

People of peace require no leaders,

harmony and love make them all achievers,

side by side they live and work,

overflowing with happiness as an added perk.

There's always the few that crave for power,

for that they need the other to cower,

they turn the neighbours against each other,

introducing racism as the perfect cover.

When tribes and nations live in fear and confusion,

chaos and hatred becomes a daily infusion,

politics is a very dirty game,

causing the nations much sorrow and shame.

For those in power to remain where they are,

they stir up strife and bring it from afar,

the people become puppets that follow their lead,

as racism grows through the hunger and greed.
