THROUGH NO FAULT OF OURS, SOMEHOW WE WERE LEFT ON FOREIGN SHORES. SOME OF US LIE IN UNMARKED GRAVES. SOME OF US REMAIN BEHIND PRISON BARS. SOME OF US SERVE AS SLAVE LABORERS.

WHETHER TO LIVE OUT THE REMAINDER OF OUR LIVES IN FREEDOM, OR REST IN PEACE, AT LAST IN OUR NATIVE SOIL-AMERICA, AMERICA, BRING US HOME-SOMEDAY.
