I love the FACT that Fantasia has risen and blossomed into the beautiful person that we are seeing and hearing from today. She is a testimony of strength for all of us, Black, White, Asian, whatever, that if you believe in yourself, if you continue to KNOW your value, you will succeed. I also love the fact that Oprah, had the wisdom to pull her back into the film because she knew that the women of this world needed to see Fantasia as she is now.

keep shaking your head. We are in a spiritual warfare and those 2 spirits that are talking I do not feel genuine. Like Taraji said and it has always been something I go by. God is not pleased with us. He put 7.88 billion people on this Earth and they are all different. He is not happy with his children. He is waiting on us to figure it out. Until we do, he will keep allowing things to happen and keep destroying the Earth until someone gets his WILL right. Words of Taraji, and we can, and we will. Stop clout chasing. Anyone will do anything for the camera like that fake crying Oprah did. See they (celebrities) have to move a certain way. I will not stoop low to make it. Because what God has for me no ONE can have.@@conniekirby9244

Even though I cannot *understand * on the level of woman of color, I can relate to the emotion and feeling and message of this powerful song. Every word that is sung has me hanging on to it. And the way Fantasia puts her whole soul into it is really what makes it so emotional 🙏🏻
Love you Fantasia I'm so happy you got the part it has been so many times before that I thought you should have been selected blessings and family
Fantasia, you have a BEAUTIFIL SOUL.
I went to see the movie on Christmas day and I could hear the black women around me being moved and releasing their pain. I was sobbing lol and I left feeling so inspired. Fantasia deserves an Oscar! 💜

Amazing that you said that. She's toxic and playing victim and you're falling for it
That last scene was so powerful in so many ways from the forgiveness to families reunited and even how in her forgiveness for him that it was not restoration of the romantic relationship. I can definitely see how it could be healing and how relatable that song was that she sang before that last scene. I believe she was in her place of business. Fantasia did a good job so all of them did

I love Fantasia and I've met her and she is so lovely and strong. I know what she means by having to tap into her grandmother. My ex passed 2 years ago a retired Marine. He was the love of my life even though we weren't together anymore we had a deep love for each other. He was also a musician and I'm a singer. So, I am currently learning a song to pay tribute to him. I will ALWAYS find a way to pay tribute to him. Pretty hard to get through the song I keep crying but I'm gonna get through it and record that song and post it on his anniversary. His birthday is next month so tough couple of months. Tough life without him but i know he wouldnt want me to stay in the dark. He would want my light to shine bright. BOTH being Marines we are warriors till the very end.I miss him and I'll always love him. ❤
Fantasia you are and look absolutely amazing!! I have played that song on repeat on my worse days. Every time it has lifted me higher!!! Thank You!! ❤️🙏🏽
I can relate too. This is my favorite lyrics . because I been through some tough times on my self because I was feeling down at work most of the time and this lyrics helps me. I'm gonna take a deep breath Hey I'm gonna hold my head up Gonna put my shoulders back

Beautiful dress!
The movie was so good........ just thinking about some of the moments in the original and seeing it again in a different light.
Ugh! I’m not crying! I got emotional right along with her, as she spoke. I thought about my own grandmother and started crying too. When she said “No matter what a man says, use it. This is your testimony”, it resonated so deeply with me. Mister’s invitation to the reunion at the end of the movie seemed questionable initially, but it is a visual and physical manifestation and depiction of what forgiveness looks like. 💯
