Knowledge and understanding. That is one of the most powerful weapons that any person can come across. I want to one day become a father...husband...leader. I'm a sponge for knowledge and I love all that it pertains. I don't know as much about my heritage but I am proud of my paint job and I see myself creating a legacy for my family and my people to be proud of. I've even considered diving into politics to help change the negativity back in the town of my birth. In this nation, we get slack about so much, yet we were forced here. Things here aren't equal for us and I want to be one of those individuals that can actually make a difference one day if the opportunity came about. I don't want to go to a job interview and be criticized for wearing my nappy hair, even if it's neat. I don't want to be looked down on just for being myself or not doing the things that the men in suits want me to. The constitution seems as tho it's not meant for us. All throughout my life, I've been told that I would be a leader and lead a great spiritual life. My words have both done damage and healed in so many ways. I will always protect myself and my family and loved one, no matter what. Debating is a strength of mine and I want to use it for good, not only for people of my skin color, but for everyone. Believe it or not, and I actually think about this a lot, but I really wish that I could unite everyone and create peace for everyone. Hate is a strong word, but I hate seeing all of the negativity and evil that this world has produced. Segregation ended here a long time ago, but the racism remained and that hurts my heart.
