"Until you have seen a deaf girl dance, you know nothing of passion." <-- Truer words have never been spoken. <3

Sadly the comments here focus on color if skin and this was a video about Brotherly love. Not war or racism. Its really depressing to see his briliant words be thrown away just cause he is performing in the white house. This is a poem that touches souls. Not its political and social views of skin and goverment. BEAUTIFUL JOB JOSHUA! Thats what this should be about.
