“Ignorance” 
is a song against racism and discrimination from Diacritical’s 2007 self titled release. Produced by Don Zientara. Though this is an old song (composed in 1996) it seems to stay relevant. The song is featured in Eyesteelfilms documentary about Taqwacore, and is referenced in a recent Time magazine article Though many people believe the song is a reaction to the recent blossoming bud of islamophobia, the song was meant to be a call against all forms of inequality and intolerance, sexism, racism, homophobia and class-ism included. Anyone who has ever felt the sting of bigotry should understand the words all to well.
Lyrics:
What if I could see you
Would you say to me
All the time
You’ve been so cold
I’ve hid inside
And if words could mend your eyes
I’d scream a thousand times
I’d scream a thousand times
Why do you hate
…and you could hide behind you mask
and raise your hand in wicked rhymes
and hear me scream a thousand times
Why do you hate me
Stop the hate.
