Attacked for who they are – v2

The most vile abuse

in the school, the playground

at work, out in the world

nothing important, worthy

targeted because of their difference

attacked for who they are

just because of their color, their race

their sexual orientation

Judging others, setting boundaries

barriers for inclusion

just for who they are
