Once upon a time, the color black was banned. Nights turned navy blue as
darkness had a shade closer to purple. Racism took a turn for the
worse. Whiteness inspired resentment as Africa was no longer the
(com)promised land. Reading between the lines became easier while the
fire at the end of the tunnel made little sense. Things were fast
changing but crows weren’t willing to conform. So what did they do?
Well, the murder waited patiently for the sentence to end; adapting
themselves to wisdom. They learnt nothing lasts forever—neither laws nor
the ones who write them.
N.B. This racist piece was written for One Frame Stories. Once upon a time. Also, check out Pallavi's story. Undoubtedly the funniest one.
