White British
White British means
I get to tick the ‘Top’ box
White British means
Never being Other,
Never having to consider my race, or my colour
White British means
Never having to wonder if my colour affects my chances,
Or to really question people’s answers
White British means
I am 9 times less likely to be stopped and searched,
4 times less likely to die of Covid,
5 times less likely to die in childbirth
But systematic racism doesn’t exist in this country, right?
At least, that’s what Boris tells us
