January I, 1989
The US and the USSR
are/were the most powerful countries
in the world
but only ⅛ of the world's population.
African people are also ⅛ of the world's population.
½ of the world's people are Asian.
½ of that number is Chinese.
There are 22 nations in the Middle East.
So most people in this world
are Yellow, Black, Brown, Poor, Female
Non-Christian
and do not speak english.
By the year 2000
the 20 largest cities in the world
will have two things in common
none of them will be in Europe
and none in the United States.
