Dear Trump, I’m a hispanic born and raised in the U.S.

My mom and dad are two hard working people

Working day and night keeping us alive.

Trump: Mexico is sending 'rapists' and 'drug dealers'

Listen my people are not a threat.

You can't just imply these lies.

You can’t justify these stereotypes..


My people come to this country for a better life

And Better opportunities.  

Not for some racist to try and ruin these.

No we dont steal your jobs

No we don't commit crimes

But we try to keep ourselves well and alive…


Working hard in the sun

To get their money right.

Without my people

this country wouldn't run right...


After all this land belonged to my kind.
