	No longer held back  
By the excuse 
Of the color of our skin 
 
No more need to heed 
The doubt 
Now we can refute 
Internalized inferiority 
Lying  
Within 
 
No longer can we be 
Fatalistic about our future 
Now we have tangible proof 
That despite our past 
Our beginnings 
Our life’s turbulent trails 
We can win! 
 
This piece is inspired by Black history, all the events leading up to the fulfillment of MLK's Dream - the Jan 20th, 2009 Inauguration
