"American Daily"
With family I am a friend. Walking down the street, I am white. To me color is color. It does not change your heart. In our society, everything is divided: By color, religion, ethnicity's, countries, how we speak, and how we dress. Our lives are restricted around judgment.
If like me, I was told “don't judge a book by a cover”. Well my title is Free in a Dungeon written by society. You are not who you say you are, you are not who you want to be. We are society's image on the front page of “American Daily”. Its white against black, black against white, and Mexicans against the world. We are Americans.
When looking at this “magazine” we call “life” you begin to notice everyone is the same. We all have a mind, eyes, a mouth, and lastly, a heart. To me being black, just means you have a really nice dark tan. Being white means you should get out in the sun more and being a Mexican is just a nice in-between. We are a rainbow of people. Why can't we enjoy who we are?

Nicely done -- it's unfortunate that this is still such a big issue in the States.
There are some errors in subject-verb agreement, and also quite a few comma splices ("To me being black, just means you have a really nice dark tan" for example). Try to go over it again and correct a bit of the grammar.
However, you're off to a good start. I think it'd be interesting if you elaborated even more on why your book title would be Free in a Dungeon!
