Whatta Question Is That? Poem by Atef Ayadi

Whatta Question Is That?



Can slavery reparations dismantle systemic racism?
plantations are all over the planet.
slavery are everywhere.
that is a systemic racism.
natives squeezed to the limits
and stripped off their way of life
that is what being exterminated
means.
if someone raped you once,
you think that is awful. and I agree with you.

but, what is about two hundred years of rape?
being a bourgeois is awful,
just check the news epstein and friends
cause, you have to be rapist from the beginning,
being a con artist is just a start. likewise means are simply ends.
one has to stop slavery first, before reparations may begin.
