FinallyA Poem by Danielle Ashera tribute to Barack's speech today 3/18/08
This man Black man Strong man Honest man Finally… Hillary, Race and Gender is not the same thing And I am a women who has faced multi types of discrimination I do not blame these women speaking out for being upset at a man A man he still is But he was responsible He stepped up Faithfully To his friend To his ancestors To his nation To Unity Saying things that need to be said Speaking out for those that need to be heard and do not know how to advocate their voice Yes, it does still exist in 2008 We do live in segregated communities We are judged solely on the color of our skin and NOTHING else This man Does not need to be glorified However it is a good day That he was brought into a situation Where he chose to make a good choice Finally © 2008 Danielle AsherAuthor's Note
