colored jew

Did you notice my skin color isnt the same as yours?

my nose isnt the same size either.

i dont have as much money as you

but im a jew

i read from the same torah you read

No we didnt not come from the same seed 

my hairs alot thicker

No my ancestors didnt have to wear that sticker 

but my ancestors went threw it too.

they were stripped of their torah, tzit tzit, and taken from their shoul

Now no one believes that im a colored jew.
