We asked them to bring music to her composition, "Believer's Hymn for the Republic."

    Amanda was chosen long time before all, to speak truth, to speak wisdom and love for all, to unite now with all might in the one spirit ,again, as the Fathers thought right. A black skinny girl born of slavery to bring all a new freedom of spirit, a lifting from white hate and fear to allow to break through incrusted dominion .
    The gift of dwelling in her words at this time, when we witnessed rebellion, that broke out to distroy the call of freedom and liberty of 245 and many years, we see the truth that only love one another will challenge all old and rusty upbringing. Amanda has sowed a seed in all as did the Fathers when chosing the words for this countries constitution, she - touches those words of the Fathers and makes them shine and glimmer and glow in our hearts and make them fly . Nothing is finished, this the beginning, of a new challenge to dismantle what thrives on inegality and hatred and killing.

  • @joaobrandjr
    @joaobrandjr 3 года назад

    The way she conducts her moves along with the words, give wings to her poems and reach us all graciously. She wears her body as a free road of meaningful feelings; collective experiences that give us a place in her voice - which is our voice at that very moment as well - and place us, as Americans, in the top of an invisible podium in which we feel winners, already! I'm so glad Amanda exists and her poems are alive ! 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

    'Believer's Hymn for the Republic'
    --by Amanda Gorman, inaugural National Youth Poet Laureate of the United States
    12 score and 3 years ago, to be exact,
    Our founders dared to declare
    The world's most revolutionary act:
    A pact sworn for liberty and equality.
    Out of many, was born one people;
    A teeming nation made of nations,
    At its very foundation a dream
    For life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
    Today, we gather so that our Founders' words do not go diminished.
    But also so that the work does not go unfinished.
    For it's not just in a declaration of independence
    But the everyday declaration of its descendants
    That make a people equal.
    It is our right and our role
    To remember these words scratched on a scroll,
    So we may live them and heal our nation whole.
    We roll up our sleeves, we believe in the dream,
    And these American stories, in the glory of the struggle,
    For it is from our struggle that comes our nation's strength,
    For the lengths that we fight for what is right
    Is the fullest measure of our country's might.
    And while we cannot shake or cast aside our past,
    Every day we write the future. Together we sign it,
    Together we declare it, we share it,
    For this truth marches on inside each of us:
    Americans know one another by our love of liberty.
    When in fact, we are liberated by our love for one another.
    We understand that a house divided cannot stand.
    So let us make a pact to be the country that acts
    As compassionate as we are courageous.
    In the declaration's pages, we write a new order for the ages,
    Where out of many, we are one,
    Bright as a sun, and bold as an eagle,
    A nation of all people, by all people,
    For all people.
    Let this fourth of July
    Move forth our cry to redeem the dream.
    As we remember those words forever ignited
    That we the people have so long heard and recited.
    That we are right to stand
    But are revolutionary when we stand united.
