Never Underestimate The Power Of A Portrait

This is an old video I shot for a Black History project I was working on.
Shoutout to Sham, Bev, and Colin for their views on the subject.
WON’T YOU CELEBRATE WITH ME
BY LUCILLE CLIFTON
won’t you celebrate with me
what i have shaped into a kind of life?
i had no model.
born in babylon
both nonwhite and woman
what did i see to be except myself?
i made it up here on this bridge between starshine and clay,
my one hand holding tight my other hand;
come celebrate with me
that everyday something has tried to kill me
AND HAS FAILED…
