شعر زیبا و پرمحتوا از یک بچه آفریقایی که کاندیدای جایزه ادبی سال 2005 شد.
When I born, I Black
When I grow up, I Black
When I go in Sun, IBlack
When I scared, I Black
When I sick, I Black
And when I die, Istill black…
And you White fellow, When you born, you pink
When you grow up, youWhite
When you go in Sun, you Red
When you cold, you blue
When youscared, you yellow
When you sick, you Green
And when you die, you Gray…
And you call me colored
