This is how we make all lives matter (The Sonnet) | Handbook of Hatebusting

Wherever a black life is shot of suspicion,
I am that black life that didn’t matter.
Wherever a woman is forced to remain pregnant,
I am that woman who doesn’t matter.
Wherever a muslim is presumed terrorist,
I am that muslim who doesn’t matter.
Wherever a queer life is persecuted,
I am that queer who doesn’t matter.
Standing up to cannibalism requires,
No exclusive background and identity.
All that matters is that you are human,
Only requirement of justice is humanity.
This is how we make all lives matter, all lives free.
Injustice on anyone anywhere is injustice on me.
