Help brainstorming ideas for an English project?

Question

I will be participating in a program called "Speak Out Loud!" The purpose of this program is to fight injustices all around the world, specifically racism.

So... what should I read? a poem? an article? ... please, if you can, give me a link or just make up a quick poem or thing for me to say... but nothing cruel or illogical, though.

What I read can only be 3 minutes long.

Thanks for your help.

You should full on be the one writing this. It's stupid to go up in front of a crowd to present something that is supposed to be meaningful to you- that you had someone else create. Do the research and find something that really speaks to you. If this is a last minute thing, then it's your own fault. If you can find something that means a lot to you- it is bound to touch someone else.
