WHITE

Until the last Quarter
Of the 1700’s
Colonial America was
Red, White and Black.

Then the Extirpation
Of the Red Man
Drove the American Revolution
And turned the New Nation White.

The Black Man remained
Under the Whip
The Red Man Dead
Or Driven West.

The Nation Now
Re-enacts
The Supremacy
Of the White Man

In Domestic mass-killings.
In Industrial-scale Incarceration.
In Police shootings
Of innocent Blacks.

In Foreign Wars and
Genocide.
These Acts of Ritual Celebration
An Affirmation of its Triumph.
