Such a beautiful poem. It brings me to tears. Our people were beautiful, is beautiful. Why did it take so long to acknowledge our history.
My heart swellls with the joy I have when I repeatedly recite this poem! It speaks to me with a strong sense of family and love to share with all my people! We ARE and forever will Be!
