The Dome was silent. It was a gracious and loving offering to all of us there. I listen to this from time to time, grateful that she cared that much for the students, respecting her dedication and hard work to make her path. She is a brilliant writer, and very kind. She touches my heart everytime I hear it again.
I so love this commencement speech. She is talking right to those students and sharing something very important. I have offered this to many young people to listen to her. It was dead silent in the Dome. Everyone listened to her. Such a personal gift. Than you, Jesmyn Ward.
