I checked. This is accurate. I sent a message to NPR to ask them to cover this and see if anyone else who is not a straight white man is also being erased and insulted.
No idea if they will, but keep passing this around.

Golden fire paints the sky.
Night’s last whisper drifts on by.
Waves reflect the embered glow,
Tides that shimmer, ebb, and flow.
A lighthouse stands in dawn’s embrace.
Shadowed clouds begin to race.
Hope ignites where the dark has been,
A brand-new day will rise again.
