I am a degenerate Stephanie Roush

I am a degenerate My ancestors never got the best of it Born in Ireland, thought America would be a better place They didn’t know they’d be judged for their race Off the boat in America and right back on To fight in a war where they didn’t belong

They were no elitists They were socially unfit Told not to procreate… That which I do appreciate

I came from them, the unfit men- And women that then Were told they should be sterilized Eugenicists are the ones that emphasized Organized, utilized Negative eugenics Morons, vagrants, schizophrenics, DEGENERATES They were classified and identified as Unfit to breed Their children would be A burden on society But here I am With them I began Said to be The worst of anybody We proved them wrong The struggle was long With men like Hitler He was not a quitter

But in the end we did mend Our reputation and beat their Pseudo-science but avoiding compliance it is what ever you call it I came from and am a DEGENERATE ** . ** ** . . **  ** . **

I am a half caste Stephanie Roush

Discriminate abuse of our rights and land They force us to assimilate They take our children Force them to speak a strange language The lighter their skin the better More likely to be adopted that way They’re trying to help they say Save the “white blood” in our half caste babies That’s their justification I don’t know how they could have better lives as wards of the state Than they would if they were where they belonged With their aboriginal families There no one loves them They don’t really care Where do they get the right to take the children from their loving families? I see no reason They are raised and loved But not the right way
