Sexism is terrible.
It is horrendous.
It is disastrous.
It’s the treatment of one sex,
Usually women,
In a negative way
For what’s between their legs.
It is male privilege
That perpetuates
This messed up system.

Racism
Racism; it is a system
Where a person is treated different
For the color of their skin pigments.
It is a system
That has oppressed millions
For many generations.
The only way to end it
Is to fight against it.
In order to do that, we must acknowledge
The existence
Of white privilege.

Privilege
Privilege; it’s a thing that exists.
You can have privilege for being white, male, or cis.
There’s also privilege for being pretty, tall, or thin.
There is even privilege for being fucking rich.
Privilege is everywhere, and it is fucking shit.
It is a system where you can get judged for the color of your skin and pigments.
It is a system where men can’t show their emotions.
It is a system where rich men can pollute the environment.
It is a system where businesses can lobby the government.
It is a system where you can be demonized for being an immigrant, poor, or homeless.
It is a system that causes great division.
But do not despair; not all is hopeless!
There is a way; a way we can fix this.
We must make people aware; aware of their privilege.
We must make people realize that the problem is systemic,
And that privilege is not just simply something that one is born in.
Privilege is something that society has decided.
Privilege can give people an unfair advantage,
And can also promote hypocrisy and double standards.
Those with privilege can get praised for something,
And if marginalized groups do it,
Those with privilege have a fit.
It’s bullshit.
This shit needs to end.
It’s time we give a voice to those who are voiceless.
