I am black so you expect less
I am black so you underestimate my ability
I am black so you believe I should accept less and receive nothing
I am black so you consider yourself better
I am black so you disregard my talent and intellect
I am black so you question my capabilities
I am black so you expect no questions
I am black so you can discredit my dance practice
I know I am black because I see my colour every second I breath. Its a reminder, I am more than you Could even imagine or possibly be.
Martin Luther King Jr “Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.” Harriet Macauley, Brussels, Belgium April 2022.
