Assimilation is how they wiped out millions of indigenous people
Assimilation is how they took land from sovereign nations
Assimilation is how they denied and erased different narrative notations
How they were able to create a gendered understanding that we continue to glory
Assimilation is why I have bad English, worse Spanish, and don’t even recall a native language
Assimilation is why they call me white-Hispanic
How they taught anti-black and brown sentiment creations
Assimilation is how they instilled self loathing throughout generations
Effectively removed aspirations
Assimilation is the only way they accept pluralization
Assimilation is what they use to control chattels of capitalism and globalization
A system they created to continue dispossession
What more do they want us to assimilate?
