Afro-Americans are not free.
They are not in their country
But black people have hope !
Slavery has to stop!
They will have real families,
Equal opportunities.
Living like Americans
Even if they are Africans.
Camille Raynal
3. Very courageous persons
Slaves’ grandsons
They have succeeded in getting a job
In living, simply
They can be stars, athletes, businessmen, …
Now, their life is easier!
Now, their life is better!
Sofia Ouazry
4. They are from Africa
But they are in America
They were free
But now they are unhappy
Hope was theirs
But now it’s so unfair
No families, just separation
No happy things, just discrimination.
Ilies El Masmodi
5. All blacks are our brothers
They are like you and me
All blacks have power
Help them and they can help you!
So open your arms
And welcome them!
Open your eyes!
Look at them!
Like you, like me, they are!
So please, stop this war!
Anssaf Badri
6. Blacks and whites, everybody
Is free
All the same, they live in poverty
We have to respect everybody
No discrimination
We must fight racism
And we have to take action
Yes, to defend them,
both blacks and whites
So hold hands,
Whites and blacks!
Be an everlasting unity
Together, we can stand up to put an end
To our problems and wars.
Hind Mimmich
7. Slaves were chained
They wanted liberty
Their overseer was laughing
Chains were resisting
They worked a lot
And they couldn’t stop
Nobody was interested in them
They were so tired…
Fortunately, slavery ended
Did it,really?
Réda Slimani
8. Black children
Little Afro-Americans
They live in America
But they come from Africa
Some are famous
Their parents were slaves
Now, they are all fabulous
But why don’t we open our eyes?
Narmine Akettab
9. Black children listen to funk music
Beautiful voice from Africa
Their culture is magic
They want to be free
But they are in America
Music is their culture
They want a sunny future
They have a beautiful voice,
That’s very well!
They sing the Gospel!
Ava Sfez
10. Rap sucks!
Dark men!
In jail!
No life!
No justice!
No words!
No power!
No liberty!
Slaves!
Allan Choucq
11. In America, live people from Africa
They are Afro-Americans
They were free
In their country
When they were taken to America
They were slaves
They are Africans
They are prisoners in America
They aren’t free
They are Africans.

12. In the ghettoes
I eat potatoes
They ask me, ‘What is your trick?’
I answer by throwing another brick!
In my house, I listen to music
When I see my speaker
I remember my lover
My trainers are Adidas
Yeah, now I feel I’m the boss
I’m American
My fathers were African
Now, in the ghettoes
We eat potatoes.
Adil Kettani
13. In America, there was slavery
In America, Blacks live in misery
In America, black people
In America, they don’t go to school
In America, they are fools
In America, slavery is living in misery.
Hind Semhi
14. Black people were merry
Living in their large Africa
Then, whites came suddenly
And took them away to America.
Happy people became victims of racism
They were mistreated
Mere commodities
Looking for freedom
They claimed their liberty.
Sara Sebaa
15. Taken from Africa
Ill-treated in America
One passion: music
One memory: magic
Working in the fields all day
They have come a long way.
Anas Harnouch
16. Blacks are humans
There’s no difference
Why are they ill-treated?
They are great, I’d say!
They are our brothers
Don’t stop at colours!
Why should we fight?
We have to hold on tight!
Sofia Lyaf
17. Slaves are sad
Because their work is so hard
But they can be happy
If their life is fantasy
Speak up, stand up!
And listen to hip-hop!
Meryem Essapha Jellouli
18. We don’t have any slavery in our school
Slavery is forbidden in swimming-pools
No real Christmas celebration
Blacks are thrown snowballs at their faces.
