dsrmouseyAmerica,
Oh, beautiful for spacious skies,
For Amber waves of grain
For purple mountains majesty
Above the fruited plain, America! America!
God shed thy grace on thee
And crowned the good with brotherhood,
From sea to shining sea!
I pledge allegiance to the flag
And to the United States of America
And to the republic for which it stands
One nation under God, Indivisible,
one nation for all!
Now these two allegiances songs, or poems were supposidly to teach you to have pride in America. When that is not what America is and hasn't been since early 1619 when we brought slaves to serve the white man by catching 20-30 black africans and chained them and brought brought them to Hampton Virginia.
Men, women, children were starved and some died standing in they're own filth. The first America, the one they tell you to take pride in, that's the one they want you to learn, but how can you?
They stole this land from the Red Man, on the trail of tears in 1831. And we're supposed to be proud that? WE, white people pushed them onto a reservation. It was called the trail of tears, because children and elderly, didn't survive. Only the strong ones lived the over two thousand miles of trail on foot. This America is what they don't tell you about and more.
And in the America now, your kids kids go to school and and karma has them not come home because they've been shot, and men get gunned down 60 times at our Fourth of July independence parade in Boston.
Lastly, I'd like to tell our story.
I would tell you of a house where my son got fired because he had too many issues with his time card helping me back and forth to my appointments, plus his stepfather with his issues with Multiple Sclerosis. Now he and his fiance, and I and his stepfather, haven't eaten for five days. Thank God for tap water.
We're feeding the bubby (Yiddish for baby) instead. Whatever is left over from that, we leave for my son since he needs to go get his meds. Or my meds, the nurses who still come, they'll scramble to get lower prices on. Sometimes for an hour.
The first America is the one they tell you to take pride in, but how can you? They took away Roe vs Wade. They stole this land from the Red Man( my ancestors), and we're supposed to be proud??
There is no pride for this land. We're starving. We don't want to take the bubby anywhere, we're just scared of everything and we're afraid of storms and gas prices. Plus we're kind of weak and have malnutrition right now.
This America now? why send him to school and doesn't come home because he's been shot, and men get gunned down 60 times at our Fourth of July parade in Boston.
