The title alone says a lot, 'racism is around me everywhere'. It is a message on its own because it's true. Even today for some it only takes one person who's a different skin colour or culture to just walk past a group of people and all of a sudden they have eyes following them everywhere. The purpose of Francis Duggan writing this poem is to stop racism from happening and to tell us about how it feels to be the victim. Racism is around me everywhere has a strong meaning behind it, it shows how racism is such a common thing that we don't stop to think about how it may affect people and what your words can mean when you say them.
