Mirrors -
What we need
Is mirrors -
A world full
of
mirrors -
To reflect
our strength,
courage,
determination
and
black unity -
Like
Sojourner Truth,
she was
a mirror -
Like
Rosa Parks,
she was
a mirror -
Can't
imagine our
black
family's
existing
without mirrors -
Barrack
Obama,
He is
a mirror -
Dr. Martin
Luther King Jr.
He was
a mirror -
If there were
no mirrors,
what would
become
of a
black child's
dream's -
What we need
is mirrors,
A world
full of
mirrors -
