IN light of the sad cases such as the racist murder of Anthony Walker, the murder of the black teenager Stephen Lawrence, and of those many millions of people killed down the many centuries because of the colour of their skin, I would like to bring to everyone's attention these words:
Tis not the colour of the skin
Nor is it of kith or kin,
But it's the heart within the man
That makes the man.
