My name is Amina and i am a spoken word artist, I have been writing since i was a little girl..I really want to become something so my son can grow up and know that all things are possible and no dreams are to big. So please take 5 minutes out of your day to check my videos out and support me <3 Peace & Love - Amina Ali (Shabazz)
I know most people will igonre this, but to anyone who loves poetry and enjoys watching spoken word poetry please check out my poem entitled "Death sentence" .. My name is Vincente "SubVersive" Perez. I'm an aspiring poet and i feel my passion will speak to many people as long as they give it a chance. If you decide to look me up i appreciate your time and effort. Thank you - SubVersive
years ago, two parents went out for dinner. A few hours later, the babysitter was calling to ask if she could cover up the clown statue in the kids' room, the father said,"Take the kids and get out of the house. We'll call the police, we don't have a clown statue." The "clown statue" is really a killer that escaped from jail. If you don't post this letter on to 10 videos tonight, the clown will be in your bed at 3:00 am with a chainsaw in his hand;sorry i didnt want that happening to me
OMG I cant believe all the negative comments on this very positive poem about what a mature and emotionally sound woman expects from the man SHE wants. And unfortunately most woman feel as thought they do not need men. But would you (men) rather be with a woman who was not with you because she had to be but because she WANTED to be. You are her choices but she has other options and she cose to be with you! Stop being so emo and pray that God sends you a woman that WANTS you!
@wickedman6 How ignorant are you? Wow.. And you're probably alone and pathetic. Hmm.. and if you're not, I'm sure you're miserable! Hmph! You have issues..
i don't need a man but one would sure feel good....i also like the part where she says i don't want a man that thinks um supposed to make him feel like a man..i love that part...
i love her accent and they way she recites her poem. i really respect what she's saying. It beautiful! I want that too...and I think God has blessed me with my man that fits this description..
Praise God for the runaway slaves that achieved freedom for them selves and secretly educated children into beautiful language, so that they could speak eloquently as it seems those complaining here can not. Runaway slaves, with their sites on freedom, are never to be disrespected. Whenever I hear the echo of their voices, It is a sweet melody. I see here, some are still ashamed of their roots. The truth is; that it is the roots that make us strong and beautiful, such as this poet.
@WarrioressRising more like da weeds are roots being black go as far back toGOD himself and ever other race comes from US we are the BEGING WHICH HAS NO ENDING FINITE
@WarrioressRising what you said is great but why praise god? if you praise god for helping to free the slaves than, is god not implicated in aiding those that enslaved others and supported the brutal robbery and rape their history?
White people do this.....black people, black people do THAT!....When white people's power goes out, they PANIC!.....When black people's power goes out, they PLAN IT!
Thats right sista..... we don't need a man but we all Do Need a man with some character and morals and most of all one who knows who he is and Above All LOVES GOD!!!!!
I love it when you nitwits assume that. Always good to prove u uppity bigots wrong.
I have a GOOD job, no kids, and my own money. THATS WHY I DONT NEED IGNORANT ASS MEN SITTING AROUND WEIGHING ME DOWN.
You assholes wish women like me needed you, but fortunetly for me, thats not the case.
Thanks for airing your racist assumptions though. Always good to know who's ignorant & who's not. Keeps me from making the mistake of wasting my time trying to carry decent conversation w/ an invalid.
in response diah4 u said all women need man 4 is to have babies well all men need women 4 is to have babies. both of these comments sound ignorant (comments not u). u say women dont need man but kids need fathers. u can say u can raise them by yourself but i bet that isnt how the child feels or what is best. the way the world is now it portrays an illusion that no one needs anyone but what is a world without true love and the only way that is possible is between man and women.
if your just talking about men that wrong women than i agree just like anything else. nothing needs anything that is going to damage it purposly from a women to a plant but most of the time women make these comments they sound like they are targeting all men. if not why would you say only thing women need men 4 is to make babies?
what does she say at 1:32? 'Therefor he doesn't '...?..." lie nor make me deliberately cry. english isn't my motherlanguage but i'm trying to write her poem down. i love it.
and how the hell do you know what most most men in western society are going through? Your generalizations are you assuming that majority of men in western society deal with the same kind of broads you deal with.
when you assume, you make an ass out of yourself.
hypocrisy? well lets explore this then. Why wouldnt a woman want a man. hmmm... Maybe it's the fact that majority of men abandon their kids and households. Only difference from what im saying and what your saying is numbers support my claim. Do your homework while your bitching and moaning about women.
Bottom line is all women need men for is to have kids. everything else they do better w/o you. Sounds like men are pissed of b/c they're not needed anymore. LOL. poor babies.
You say they're rare because YOU dont know many? That is a flaw in human thinking. The world isnt generalized on who YOU know, and what YOU see. The worlds much bigger than just YOU. I do think the number of US women that the lady is talking about is smaller that the opposition, but I dont think it's a small enough number to call it rare.
oh, & dont use the term "man," so losely. majority of guys aren't men, they're cowards running from their responsibilities and blaming others for it.
