“We would like to know about your planet” they said and I simply told them “I honestly don’t know much about the world or the planet I live on, but I know a lot about my country at least from my point of view. I can tell you about that.”
“Great! That would be just fine.” The little green things exclaimed.
“Well if you really want to know, I live in the United states of America. Apparently it was founded on July 4, 1776 by a man named Christopher Columbus. That’s what they taught me in school but I have my own beliefs. Here in America we have this documentation called the Declaration of Independence. In this document it states that “All men are created equal.”
(This is a bunch of bologna if you ask me)
To a certain extent is this statement true. I will say that all men are created the same way but they are definitely not treated equally.

Remember, “All men are created equal.” Does it seem that way?
"Im not sure" replied one of the martians. Well not to me. Racism is a huge factor that has and probably will always determine a person’s place in society. Racism has led to blacks being mistreated all over the world. For instance, this african american boy named Emmett Till was murdered after he was accused of “flirting with a white woman in 1955. Things like this make me say that the country in which I live in is hypocrisy. I didnt know that flirting was a crime. Too bad he wasnt even doing so.
Unfortunately, my green friends, America Isnt what most people think it is. People are treated unfairly all accross the world but i can only speak on what I've witnessed. Overall, America is a huge hipocrisy in which all men arent treated equally.
