THIS IS MY OSCAR SPEECH FROM LAST NIGHT:
SPECIAL LOVE TO TONYA, SATCHEL AND JACKSON
THE WORLD TODAY IS IRONY
THE DATE THE 24TH
THE MONTH
FEBRUARY WHICH ALSO HAPPENS TO BE THE SHORTEST
MONTH OF THE YEAR
WHICH ALSO HAPPENS TO BE BLACK HISTORY MONTH
THE YEAR 2019
THE YEAR 1619
HIS/HER – STORY
1619 TO 2019
400 YEARS
400 YEARS AGO
OUR ANCESTORS WERE STOLEN FROM MOTHER AFRICA
BROUGHT TO JAMESTOWN, VIRGINIA – ENSLAVED
OUR ANCESTORS TO WORK DA LAND
FROM CAN’T SEE IN DA MORNING
TO CAN’T SEE AT NIGHT
MY GRANDMOTHER ZIMMIE REATHA SHELTON
WHO LIVED TO BE 100 YEARS YOUNG
WHO WAS A SPELMAN COLLEGE GRADUATE
EVEN THOUGH HER MOTHER WAS A SLAVE
MY GRANDMOTHER WHO SAVED
50 YEARS OF HER SOCIAL SECURITY
CHECKS TO PUT HER 1st
GRANDCHILD – SHE CALLED ME SPIKEY POO – PUT ME
THROUGH MOREHOUSE COLLEGE
AND NYU GRAD FILM
BEFORE THE WORLD TONIGHT I GIVE
PRAISE TO OUR ANCESTORS WHO
HELPED BUILD THIS COUNTRY AND
WHAT IT IS TODAY – ALONE WITH
THE GENOCIDE OF ITS NATIVE PEOPLE
IF WE ALL CONNECT WITH OUR
ANCESTORS FOR LOVE WISDOM
AND REGAINING OUR HUMANITY IT
WILL BE A POWERFUL MOVEMENT
THE 2020 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION
IS AROUND THE CORNER
LET’S ALL MOBILIZE, LET’S
BE ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF HISTORY
MAKE THE MORAL CHOICE BETWEEN LOVE VS. HATE
LET’S DO THE RIGHT THING
Y’KNOW I HAD TO GET THAT IN
SOMEWAY – SOMEHOW
IN CLOSING
BROOKLYN’S IN DA HOUSE
BROOKLYN WINS
BROOKLYN WINS
