"You’re not to be so blind with patriotism

that you can’t face reality.

Wrong is wrong,

no matter who does it or says it."
(Malcolm X)

Black youth goes off to far-off lands killing "the enemy,"

only to come home and discover that Uncle Sam is not his friend.

Thought Uncle Sam had great rewards waiting for him.

Never knew he would be met with homelessness despite fighting for the land of "the brave and the free"
