WHO you calling "COLORED"???

azilana7037's picture

This was sent to me by a friend when i was still back in the Philippines. When this forum topic about Discrimination started, I thought of this and find myself smiling.

This was written by a black guy in Texas and is so funny. What a great sense of humor and creativity!!!). But since my color is somewhat lighter, I've changed the word from "Black" to "Brown" to make it more applicable to my own race.

When I born, I brown,
when I grow up, I brown,
when I go in sun, I brown,
when I cold, I brown,
when I scared, I brown,
when I sick, I brown,
and when I die, I still brown.

You white folks....
when you born, you pink,
when you grow up, you white,
when you go in sun, you red,
when you cold, you blue,
when you scared, you yellow,
when you sick, you green,
when you bruised, you purple,
and when you die, you gray.

So who you callin' colored folks ???

Yes, it funny! Lighter way of accepting & admitting the fact that somehow the colour of skin matters to those shallow minds!

I've had days when I have been all of those colours.

Sometimes all at once.

That's why we spend a fortune going on sun beds.

Really funny this and true, I heard it as it happend;

The local radio station where I live ran a phone in competition.

The lady who won was told her prize was a course of sun bed sessions at some beauty parlour.

Her response was "but I'm black Billy".

She was laughing so hard she could hardly speak.

They offered to change the prize but she said no she would take it.

They ran a story in the local paper with pictures of her on the sun bed laughing her head off.

It was funny.

It dun't really matter.
