To Women of Color
La Shel OlivereTo Women of Color,
We are strong, we are powerful, we are resilient. We fall, we rise, we keep moving forward. We fight battles, many of which most will never understand. We have a voice, we have felt the pain of not being heard, not being valued enough, not being represented or acknowledged in the way that we should be. We work twice as hard to achieve whatever we want in life. So we will not back down, we will continue to build each other up. We will continue to fight for what we deserve. Our strength is our humanity. Wherever we are planted we will grow. We are strong, we are powerful, we are resilient.
