"Black, White and Tan" is narrated by a little girl who is of mixed race. She talks about how her Mom is black, her Dad is white, and each of her brothers are a different shade of tan.
...Here is a small excerpt:
...We all look a little different,
But we are the same family.
We are black, white and tan,
Like a human rainbow,
And we love each other very much.
When God made me,
He gave me big brown eyes,
And dark wavy hair.
He also gave me tan skin.
It is the color of coffee
Mixed with cream,
A shade of honey,
Kissed by the sun.
