Luyện nghe bài hát Colour Line

Today, the color line is the power line, is the line

Racism and imperialism work in
And is their handmaid

Those who are poor and powerless to break out of poverty
Are also those who by and are non-white, non-western, third world
Poverty and powerlessness are in color, in race
Discrimination and exploitation feed into other today
global capitalism

We are back to primitive accumulation, on a world scale
Only time, the pillage is accompanied by aid
Sustained by advice and underpinned by programmes
And policies that perpetuate

The IMF, the world bank, structural adjustment
agreement on tariffs and trade, gatt
Are a few of the organizations, schemes, projects
Which under the guise of developing the world, plunder it

Trade agreements and price-fixing
and intellectual property rights
They lock them into paralytic

There is no such thing as immigrants
Only governments

Black is not just the of our skins
It's color of our politics

is no such thing as illegal immigrants
Only governments

Today, the color line is the line, is the poverty line
