I KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE TO BE IN CARE...
Who Cares? likes to treat you! We have an exclusive chat with renowned poet and author Benjamin Zephaniah. This dude has more honorary accolades than Nelson Mandela and spends his life speaking the truth and campaigning for fairness. But life wasn't always like this for Mr Zephaniah, he was in care for a while when he was younger - just like you. Want to hear what the big bad bard told Who Cares? and what he said to some of your quizzical questions? Carry on reading...
Professor Benjamin's rhyme especially for YOU!
"I know what it’s like to be in care, Cos I’m Benjamin Zephaniah and I was there. People may stand and stare... But they’re just not aware.
Listen people, I’ve got to tell it to you, Everybody’s important and that is true. You may think that we are just nothing and isms, But we are just ignored by the system...
You see people in care, Are people you should really care about. And if you don’t care about - I’ll tell you something, we have come to shout it out!" Find out what Benjamin Zephaniah's said to some of your questions or for the full interview, see the autumn issue of Who Cares Magazine! |
