Idea of humanity,secularism,inclusiveness,equality and justice has come under attack from these  turbulent and heinous crimes conducted around the Globe. They judge you on your cover and name slip. They screen you from top to bottom,from left to right. They have thier preconceived notions and assumptions. They want to play and mould you like a clay. They want to crush your innocence under thier dominance But, There are Humans alive who will Respect your Soul Understand the...
