A POEM WE FAIL TO ACKNOWLEDGE.

Why do they believe it is fine?
For a girl to quiver at nine.

So, is this masculinity?
To blacken our virginity.

They do not believe in consent
Neither do they seem to repent.

A four letter word that holds fear
An action done by someone dear.

RAPE, very often neglected
Societies are not to blame
For the women dumped infected
It’s the mindsets we have to tame.

Nothing was wrong with her attire
You think so?, that’s insanity!
What’s wrong is your foolish desire
Where is the humanity?

America has gone backwards. Lynchings have returned and they all blame it on depression even though there is no record of it. This poem is written as a response of such heinous acts and how racism has been an issue since the time of our grandparents. That we will continue what we started and it will end with us.

We are often told to follow a certain norm prevalent in society, it’s like there’s this certain checklist or labels for something to be ‘perfect’. We wait for society to judge us, hanging on by a string of likes on our instagram page. But, do we really need others to define OUR perfect? Moreover, don’t our true selves lie beyond those rugged, old and boring standards? Hold yourself up and look in the mirror. Choose to be free.

Men’s Rights: Balancing the Gender Equation

Men’s Rights: Balancing the Gender Equation

We live in world where it is our right to fight for injustices we see happen to others or ourselves. We protest, we riot, we demand for change and in time, when we all come together, no one can oppress us. We create a spark through spreading information through articles like these, that inspires others to act. I, like may of you, have witnessed people being put down for nothing but their gender. If you believe in true gender equality, you must include all the variables in the equation, like the Men’s Right’s Movement, and hear the male side of the story.
