Sonia Sanchez performs her poem "Middle Passage" accompanied by guitarist Gerry De Mol. September 11, 2008 at the Interdependence Day Celebration and Forum in Brussels, Belgium
America was really unkind - almost 100 years 1776-1865 and then, Almost another 100 years 1865 - 1965 ?? I almost get tired from this Struggle - yet, we really really were kinda bad. (wrong)!
Some ppl go to college and are 100k in debt to get degrees in poetry, English, creative writing etc just to write poetry. I imagine this is what their writing sounds like
Middle passage is moving and filled with powerful content. Bravo!!
I got chills. Damn .
Powerful! Thank you Elder Sonia Sanchez.
This is a real celebrity.
I love this woman. She says truth because she has lived truth. From this Gay man to a sister in arms.
Why am I just finding out about her wow!
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. Put us into the shoes of what our ancestors had to go through coming to America.
I love her style and her work! God bless her!
