How Does Zephaniah Address The Issue Of Equality

These two poems are vastly different but they seem to both address the same issue. The issues being of equality. The first talking more about the different nationalities in England and how all are equally important. Zephaniah creates a clear visual that anyone can relate to. It is sort of like a “recipe” for England. This poem is really cool because it allows people to see how a nation works or how it should work at least.
The second one, entitled “Who’s Who” is very short but it gets to the point. It really shows that we don’t know what a person is like or what they go through until we step into their shoes. There is always going to be a stereotype of something like nurses being only women or police being only men. But we can challenge that
stereotype and be anything we want to. A man can be nurse and a woman can very well be a cop. It is just like Zephaniah thought that poets were boring but then he actually became and poet and realized that was farther from the truth.
As a nation we should act as one no matter race or nationality. We are equal. We can do anything we put our minds to. No matter what anyone tells us. No matter the stereotypes.
