Can she be on top of her class?
A black girl can.
Can she achieve a scholarship?
A black girl can.
Can she go to Harvard?
A black girl can.
Can she study abroad?
A black girl can.
Can she become a doctor?
A black girl can.
Can she become president?
A black girl can.
If you can do all these things a black girl can too!

Beautiful motivational piece of poetry, well articulated and nicely brought forth with conviction. The colour of one's skin is immaterial, what counts is being born a worthy individual. A lovely poem indeed. Thanks for sharing Colleene and do remain blessed.
