You were born a black girl because you are strong. Like they say, beauty hurts. Black women get looked down upon because other people are jealous of our beauty, or features. Like big lips, wide hips, and big butts. You are beautiful. Black women are meant to go on their own personal journies to discoveeing how beautiful they actually are, no matter what people say. Black girl, keep your head up and let your beauty shine, because you are Golden💗

I personally think black women are absolutely beautiful, and I make sure to tell my daughter that everyday. And sometimes strangers when I pass them by...if I’m feeling brave...I can be shy sometimes. And I’m sorry anyone has ever told you guys different.

"If you can breathe black girl, you've succeeded." This is beautiful!

I found myself here somehow.. I needed to hear this. Many other black women and girls still do. Thank you💕

the sound is amazing they are talking about the little flaws that people make fun of us for like we can control it and not just because of the color of our skin. this poem was beautiful

Only 200,000 something views in 6 years? For SHAME. This is grand on an impossible scale. Yes black girls, YES.

Greatness is personal And though it is black girls at the bottom of the social totem poll Pressure makes diamonds So it's time black girls to make your diamonds glow ❤🖤

Amazing! This should be watched by every black and African female

Are Black and African mutually exclusive? 🤔

Wow this poem hit the nail right on the head. I love it. It's powerful

I am growing up in a very white community and I rarely see a black person in real life maybe in the car driving somewhere or in church but it's not very often and I have only ever had one conversation with a black person and it was in the 2nd grade I don't remember it that well but he was very nice I always grew up loving black people just as much as white people and not understanding how someone could put them into a group and hate all of them some are good and some are bad but I always wanted to show love and respect to these people and often if I saw a black person I would look away out of the up most respect I didn't and don't want them to think I'm judging them and to this day standing in line at McDonalds with a black person in line with me makes me very very conches of every thing I do how I stand where I look ect and I just want to say that I want to give every black the most respect and love I can give and I want you to know that you are equal you are capable you are beautiful you are strong and you don't need me to say that much love

So treat them as equals and not like some extraterrestrial being. You're trying so hard not to offend, not to look, not to stand too close that you don't even realize you're fetishizing them. Black people are not some peregrine animal that need tiptoeing around. They are human. The exact same as every other. If you don't act that way around white people, don't do it around others. Your comment, though meant with good intention, reminds me of Get Out. You marvel at blacks like they are another species. This is an old comment so I hope you've learned by now. Just re-read it as if it were a black, latino, or Asian person speaking about you. Wouldn't your reaction be "That's too much. I'm only human"?

her voice is so beautiful

Powerful words. I wish all black girls knew.

I hate me.. I hated me for so long that I forgot how to love the darkness of my skin, the frizz in my hair.. I'm finally finding the love for my race, ancestry, frizzy hair, and dark skin. Thank you for this, Dylema!!✨✨

This is my 1st time hearing THIS👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿💖🙏🏿

This is my first time hearing this poem and the Most High knew that I needed to hear it today.

"pressure makes ♢" omg this got to me so much love

Black women is power

Ase!! Amen!!

Yes i adore this poem.🙌🙌🙌🙌

jumping jeshophat. I know a black girl knew that would probably say that

My lord. This is magic. Every black girl has to hear this.

This poem looks like the voice of the gods of your ancestors speaking to you to wake up, be you and do you before you finally meet them. The world must know we ain't inferior. Nice piece and visuals. Bless up!

Power to the sisters who know! Power to you black Queens.

Wow

That deep. I am glad someone said it.

beautiful. really strong message delivered.

I love this poem. It's beautiful. It's both powerful & empowering. Thank you.

Powerful; beautiful message. I urge every woman reading this to make it your mantra. Embrace every word until it's no longer a thought; no longer a decision. Side note: plz dnt fall victim to bitterness. Explore your feelings & where they come from along w the message/attitude u want to present to the world. I wasn't even aware of my own bitterness (or the effect it had on every aspect of who I was/what I did) for a long time... Just wanted everyone to be aware of their own shit! ✌

Same fellow goddesses

standing in the midst of the desert i saw a figure approach it was like looking at the sun the leaves scattered around, singing and finding their way down in autumn, upon a skin that glistened with every step mesmerizing was the scene like a dancing waterfall the darkness of you radiated and touched me like a light you danced with the wind and it made you look glorious even the sun watched as its child was magnanumous the earth embraced you as you had its hue it smiled at you just like strange men do a touch unimaginable so soft you felt how do you glow so , what is your confession? how do you whisper life into my reflection how the leaves find you wherever you hide, like a lost child they search for their mother they cuddle you and play with your hair they dont want to leave, because it feels like home did the sand lose its way when it found you or was it from you that it was born did the sea cry when it saw you or where your tears what meade the sea beauty in variety you are magic something unexplainable you are tragic you blacken your mirror you are pathetic you give yourself away for your hearth is pure the irony of love, yet so cruel the world watches as you are ripped to shreds the pigs laugh in chorus because they know they wonder how can a queen bow so low? if only, my GOd if only.... if only you knew how much diamonds were worth. by Ghane Mundih
