 * __Who Are We???=}__**

We are the people who hurt Other people, even the ones that we love. We are the people who want To do good but don’t always Know how. We are the people who need Other people no matter how Independent we think we Are. We are people who Make mistakes everyday Because we’re only human. We are different races White, black, Hispanics, Asian, Korean, and many different other races. We are genisuses, inventors And workers. But most of all we are Just us! We are who we’re supposed to be! We are us, them, they, and Me!

__//Who Are We?//__
We are the things needed to be known. Hopes and dreams crushed and crumbled. Feelings never shared or shown. We are the unknown, the unsuccessful, We are the forgotten. By: Evelin V.

We come from the barrio. Missundastood Hated for our race, Cuz’ we’re from the hood. We come from the south, the north, west, and east. Yeah, homie that’s the word, “the best we can be.” Don’t judge us by the color of our skins, tryna bring us down, For what ya’ll claim we did… Promises were made but pain is what we got, All the lies they told us, running through our thoughts. Freedom offered, Dreams come true. Land of opportunity, that was so not true. They lock us up for things we do not commit but only because the color of our skins. We’re called immigrants because we crossed the border, tryna make it right, we come here to better our life for our future. But we’re missundastood because gangs run through the U.S. of A…. We are all the same in each in every way, We all live and die so what’s the point on wasting our lives by bringing us down. When we could be together as a nation and become stronger than what it is now, Legislation enacted trying to keep us down… But not even thoughts of consideration run through minds of the authorities, just thoughts of us “mexican’s” taking over their territories. We have so much more to offer to the world…. There are talented latinos on the big screen, community leaders hitting the political scene, my people are in college, getting there degrees, Going back into the barrio, education is the key. We're serving in the military, being all that we can be, Proving bravery in battle, keeping this country free. But even taking a chance, would kill you. Cuz’ we’re missundastood. Because Latino’s with education, are so much stronger than your nation. So we’ll just keep our heads up, till’ the day we’re excepted as American’s, and not immigrants…but we’ll always be Mexicans. Think about this, your ancestor’s were all immigrant’s that’s the reason why your still here. So by calling us immigrants you should think about it first cuz’ you’re an immigrant too…. Thoughts of us wonder in our minds everyday. Will we be here to see tomorrow? or will today be the day our people live in sorrow?

//__ Who are we? __// // We are the people who are artistic and love creation. // // We are the people who make our nation. // // We are the people who bring you joy. // // We are all of the poor girls and boys. // // But now we are women and men. // // Ready to fight in what we believe in! // //WE ARE THE BLACK NATION// We are the footprints in the dust The tears and sweat dried by the sun The warriors that have lost, with little hope that we will win The fallen that will rise and regain our dwindling faith. We try to look to a brighter day and see the light we want to reach Tomorrow is not promised to us Live today and dream of tomorrow and maybe you will be in  The presents of the beholder

with our southern accents, and a special walk, who are we? must we come from the south just to be human must we suffer and feel pain just to be ourselves we are who we are from how we were raised, how we learned. not from the chains we wore or the tears we cried. we come far for each other, when in need, we ask. but what we really are is together... as people not a name tag.

 * __Who Are We? by Tamara J.__**

We are the people our country counts on the most, We replenish the lands and make it our own. Day and night trying to make it right, We thrive on our surroundings, Bring new cultures in, Adapt and make our very own. We are the youth of the nation, Creators of our future and proud for what we represent. We are Americans.

Who Are We?!?!?!? by Khain L. I am a white boy Born in Nebraska

Thirteen 11/12 years ago. Came here to Georgia

Eight years ago. Eight years a Southerner. I guess being a Southerner. Isn't that different Than being a Northerner. We breathe the same air, See the same sky, Watch the same T.V. So, Northerners and Southerners Just aren't that different.

WHO ARE WE?

we are strong farmers of the earth working hard by the sweat of our brow we are educated workers together united with colors different we act the same we are dreamers and thinkers together we are southerners

we are people living in hot humid climates never to see snow we are tough, and gritty hardened workers we are inventors, farmers, athletes, and more we are the south...

We are the kids who live in fear of today's tomorrow but why? because we are today's tomorrow. kids are the future. frightened? we are the teens of today, who determine the future of our home, town, state, country, and world. kids are the future. frightened? maybe you should be. but you know, it's not our fault. we're being raised by you, the parents, the gaurdians. you're supposed to teach us to be the better people and suceed in life. but maybe you should open your eyes and realize that our futures are a risk because of us because of you. kids are the future. frightened?

__Who Are We?__ We are the farmers that grow your cotton... We are the people that labor in the heat. We are many colors and cultures... But one nation.

We are the doctors, teachers, and athletes. We are the garbagemen, plumbers, and animal herders. We are the southerners...

Agriculture is what we lived by... But things change. As the world progresses... We try to keep up. But we must remember... Who are we?
