A call to action
A solidarity demonstration
A collective consciousness
Delegations
Associations
And mobilizations
A convergence
Intercommunal and intergenerational
Brothers embodying
The militancy and power of the black man
Sisters embracing
The wisdom and royalty of the black women
Children personifying
The innocence and brilliance of the black child
A black agenda
A Africa agenda
A agenda for the diaspora
Unity in our hearts
Organization on our minds
The spirit of the ancestors moved through the crowd
The spirit of drum moved the crowd
Signs hand written and painted
Affirmations
Proclamations
Demands
A beautiful sight to see
A sea of red, black, green
Afro’s defying gravity
Loc’s flowing down to the ear lobes
To the shoulders to the thighs
We gathered we marched
We talked we workshopped
We protested we worshipped
Infants and
Children and
Teens and
Adults and
Elders and
Those who have transitioned
But are still with us
