Short but Meaningful

[Leech316]

i have to do a painting for my art class about any social injustice and ive decided to do it on racism and poverty
now im looking for a quote by tupac that is short but meaningful thats related to racism, poverty or being unfair (catn think of the right word )
it should probably have only a few words and no more than 5 words lol
so if any meaningful quotes by pac come up to your mind, please drop them here

o and also not really topic related but if anyone has or know of any site with pictures of urban ghetto streets/houses thatd be awesome as well

thanks so much in advance!!!

Poverty is so bad. Wow did it in 4. I cant really help you out without goin over that limit but I suggest slide in Resurection dvd and listen to the first half hour or so, it goes pretty deep into this subject.

only 5 words?? Thats crazy.....

heres a few for the topics you want, though some are longer than 5 words but not by much.

"all I see is racist faces"

"they got money for wars but cant feed the poor"

"we cant have peace til we get a piece"

"my own black nation at war"

it ain't about black & white cuz we're human (i hope we see the light before it's ruined)
it's more than 5 but it's also a good one

thanks all
i especially lke hellrazors
but ithought i should tell you guys a lil bit about what the painting will look like

itll be a painting of either a black man or a black pastor or soemthing like that (to emphasize that his innocent) near a nice car and im gonan have a couple white crooked cops pointing guns at the black dude and arresting him just cause he has a nice car even though he didnt do anything wrong

thatll be the main thing for the painting
and i think it can be over 5 words, i just set a limit so some people dont give me like a long long quote which will ruin the painting most likely and waste your time as well haha

but again i really appreciate you guys droppign your thoughts!!!

whats up leech, i live in Brazil, so, you know we have the biggest ghettos in the world, not even a ghetto, slums, FAVELAS ... i got this Site from Rio De Janeiro when we have the biggest ghetto in the world, its called "Rocinha" when more then 200.000 ppl live in poverty. Remember thats just 1 of hundreds (600) of places like this around Rio . 20% of Rio de Janeiro residents are living in "favelas". The average income of a householder is something like $150 dollars / month.

Most of the photos are from the 60's and 70's...

changes...

"im tired of being poor even worst im black"

"cops giva a damn 'bout a negro (pull the trigger kill a nigga he's a hero)"

"the penitentiary's packed, and it's filled with blacks"


my block...
"From the start I felt the racism cause I'm dark"

 

[TraynAllDay]

"Fuck peace!"

or how about

"Fool, there'll never be peace"

 

[raJic_d]

"they got money for wars but cant feed the poor"

"we cant have peace til we get a piece"

Those two are DEEP !
