Hello( as she said) I’m De’Aisha

And I really have to speak from my heart right now.

So I wrote this poem and I called it the black excellence poem,

But I realized that the excellence wasn’t the poem.

It was me !

it’s everyone who stands on this stage & in this room.

It’s the music in our souls,

I’m talking drake and Luther van dross.

Watch us shine, the brightest star you’ve ever seen.

Have you witnessed the joy that a black person brings. It makes you feel warm inside and shoots love into your body like laser beams.

And if black excellence is a star, then us-

In this room … is the most beautiful constellation I’ve ever seen.

Thank you all for being here, and thank you all for being you, I love you all stay blessed.
