Question:

Please give feedback on this poem I wrote...........?

Strong minds talk about ideas
Weak minds talk about people
That is the quote I think of when I am judged
by someone is supposed to be my equal.
Sure I am different form the norm,
different from the others
But we are family - we are all sisters and brothers
We have shared history together.
Did you forget about the cotton fields, the ships, the stormy weather?
Doesn't that count for something?
Oh, I forgot that was the past so that's nothing
Here an now you're clowned because you don't wear Jordans and Baby Phat
In the words of MLK judge me by the content of my character
not by the clothes on my back
I enunciate my words and I speaking white
It's not a white or black thing
it's just I am speaking right
You call me a sell-out
because I choose not to surround my self in ignorance
I tried that route,
I sticking with knowledge, you had your chance.
So you go ahead judge me
by the way I talk, walk, and dress
I am still not changing

I find your poem quite stimulating and it reminds me of my favorite words by Dr. King, "When all is said and done, it is not the voices of our enemies that we will remember but the silence of our friends."
