This has been one of the most wonderful moments that poetry awakens, watching the emotions that the poetry of Mariposa caused in Ntozake´s soul could be felt throuth the lense of the video camera. The trembling of a voice that was directed to someone who has endured the sayings of her voice. I feel priviledged to have been able to witness in the distance such a beautiful moment that has touched my life and soul. I am very proud of you Mariposa!!! Beso María Juliana Villafañe

Thank you Adal and much love & thanks to El Puerto Rican Embassy for giving me the great honor of presenting the Pedro Pietri Hand Award to Ntozake Shange. Posthumous thanks to Pedro Pietri for taking Ntozake under your poetic wing when she was only 19 years old. And finally, thank you Ntozake, thank you for never ever giving up abd being the powerful woman that you are. Mucho amor! Ever grateful, Mariposa
