Indigenous Boomerangs

If what went around came back around/
There'd only be Blacks in town/
So called 'minorities' not Black and Brown/
Slavery'd come back around/
Wonder on who's back the whip would come crashing down?/

Tribes take back the land, from them it was taken/
Complacent Euro-Americans get a taste of displacement/
Now who's living in Public Housing, kept on Reservations?/
Getting slept on for citizenship and incarcerated/
Getting raped by the dominators, histories obliterated/

If (if) what went around came back around/
Would (would) New Orleans (Orleans) be on solid ground?

If the housewives up in the OC was to drown/
Would it take 3 days to get water? 3 weeks to be found?/

This-this-this-is so far from hatred/
This is so far from racist/
Reality Reciprocated

Extraordinarily thought provoking.

If this was the reality of those whom have thought of themselves and superior and entitled, the world would be a different place.

Totally, the catch is, if the opportunity presented itself, would we go forward with implementing systemic oppression upon another group of people?
