Repost from the amazing @milckmusic ❤️❤️❤️ • Wowee. @amandascgorman has won our hearts with her powerful words. I think this is perfect timing, as our nation is hungering for words of wisdom and divinity. I can hear the power of her and her ancestors sing through her. As a young woman who has overcome her own speech impediments through writing and reciting her own poetry, she has now grown into such a strong and earth-moving orator. She is living proof that pressure makes diamonds. Just two days ago Amanda Gorman and I released a video collaboration in honor of National Day of Racial Healing, which you can swipe to watch. Her poetry adds such a depth of dimension to my song “Somebody’s Beloved,” and I am so happy our paths have crossed in the name of making art, and not keeping quiet. I adore you, Amanda. Cheers to many more years of being guided and comforted by your words and wisdom. I have a feeling we will be hearing from you for the rest of time. Soak in the beauty. It is a reflection of you and the ancestors who ride alongside you. #howweheal #together #somebodysbeloved #amandagorman #poetryislove #racialhealing #racialjustice
