African Family Reunion How interesting it would be To follow Alex Halley And retrace our family tree; Back to our native homeland Uganda, Kenya or Chad To see how African life was Before the good things went bad; It's sad we can only retrace To a time when our people were slaves Ancient ancestral traditions Carried with them to their graves; We know little of our heritage They refuse to teach it in school Celebrating ethnic diversity Is something we should all want to do; An in depth research of black history Would offer an amazing surprize We've contributed much to world progress The truth would open your eyes.
