Being born and raised in the Caribbean (U.S. Virgin Islands)my St. Thomian accent will never leave me, and I am proud of that; Even when speaking "proper english". Now attending college in the U.S. mainland and taking on the differences in culture I can definitely take this poem to heart . Well Spoken!
Understanding how we are judge we must thrive to better ourselves everyday...while being true to ourselves....
This is a wonderful poem. It warmed my heart to see Father and Sons delivering a poem such as this - as a collective voice . Its a very powerful message in this way. Well done!
Awesome poem and read with just as much power. I was looking for a social justice poem to go with my project I was doing for a class and ran across this. It's really very, very good. Great job!
We are happy you enjoyed our video. If you like, please use it with your project. We would be interested in how your project turned out. Thanks for the love.
Thanks so much for your permission to use it! I went ahead and copied it as best I could into a poem format (as I was doing a compiled book of poems from others that expressed aspects of Critical Pedagogy we talked about during class in our education course), being sure to give you guys credit. I think she really enjoyed it :). I got full points on the project, anyway, and she seemed very pleased on how it turned out. But yeah, once again... really great job. I thoroughly enjoyed this piece :).
