Is This is My Country? #WarOnWhites


It's important for people to understand that the man is this photo was throwing it BACK at police who shot it at him.~Antonio French

Some people don't think we have the right

To say it's my country

Before they give in they would rather fuss and fight

Than say it's my country

I've paid 300 years or more

Of slave driving sweat and welts on my back

This is my country

Too many have died in protecting my pride

For me to go second class

We've survived a hard blow, and I want you to know

That you must face us at last

And I know you will give consideration

Shall we perish unjust or live equal as a nation

This is my country

Some people think we don't have the right To say it's my country Before they give in, they'd rather fuss and fight Than say it's my country I've paid three hundred years or more Of slave driving, sweat, and welts on my back This is my country
